What can I say - apart from aces !!
Is this just the tester until you do a massive one made from plate gammon steaks ?

I;d love to keep working on this stuff
but I've been comprehensively banned by my wife.
I pointed out that if Werner von Braun had been grounded every time he'd fired a rocket-propelled sausage through his living room window, then man would never have reached the moon, but for some reason my protestations fell on deaf ears

Point out
that sometimes a man-pad up the flaptrack is enevitable. It won't help, but it is a lovely phrase to use in context.
EDIT: To de-RIS. A MANPAD is a type of Surface to Air Missile, a flap track is part of the wing of an aircraft. The two came together a few years ago when I was working for the firm that built the 'plane, and the phrase was born. It always made me giggle like a schoolgirl but I so rarely can bring it into conversation.
