A Slippery Situation

In the gathering darkness Hungarian agent Janos Klees embarked upon his planned voyage to a floating dry-dock borrowed from Poland, and moored in the North Sea. Following the abortive 1956 anti-communist uprising his government had made plans to modernize the country's industry in any way they could, and outright theft of foreign technology was authorized.

Starting the noisy engine attracted unwanted attention, and Klees had no time to learn the intricacies of the machine. He simply sped off on the compass heading he had been given, unaware that his clandestine trip coincided with the mass post-breeding migration of Anguilla anguilla, returning from the Sargasso Sea to the rivers in which they lived. Without the rubber skirt which had yet to be developed he found the craft tricky to keep level, and he suddenly found himself submerged, fortunately on a shallow mudbank. The damage had been done however, and the last transmission received at the dry-dock before his apprehension by the Royal Navy was "My hovercraft is full of eels!"

First there was "Snakes On A Plane."

Now:  "Eels On A HoverCraft."   :lol:

Alvis Petrie, where ARE you?!  He'd love this.  I'm going to e-mail him at home.

Ratty, you must have some incredible dreams at night!

Thanks. The original idea was to have it just buried in the suckers, but one's mind can only concentrate on twiddling Plasticine for so long before going nuts.  :wacko:
