I thought Sir William had rigged the tyres as fenders, and had invited Red 17 to lean over the rail to see his handiwork (as it were.) It would have brought a whole new meaning to that familiar phrase,
"She's suffered a fender bender."

Our guests will be aboard in half an hour. Must get dressed for the part. Best uniforms please guys. we want to make a good impression.
Steward! you know which glasses to spike later eh? thats right, keep the females on the weak stuff. make sure the Mayor passes out early. I think I'll mix me powdered Viagra and Guinness just to get me in the party mood. See to it our female crew have whatever they want on my tab steward.

I am afraid something seems to have got into the water, I knew we shouldn't allow it's consumption. Red-17 is ashore at the moment, you lot have been road-testing one of the new generation cyber dolls, and you've wrecked it!
It was on loan, but we can't send it back like this. Varley and Tmac, is ther any chance you can rebuild? And try to think Pygmalion and not Frankenstein, we don't need a cyborg lurking round the place removing crews bits to check against it's spares list.

Water! Me? I might have swallowed a small drop whilst showering but not enough to bring on a doll wrecking frenzy.
Ahem. When it comes to using crew bits for repairs are you sure you checked the specification (Bits external, asymmetrical, dangly. And Bits, external, symmetrical, firm) matched the GD's shopping list? The two models available are not interchangeable and statistics suggest that only a few of us would take a test drive without worrying which one was which if you get my drift. If one was 'shifting into fourth' when discovering one was driving home the wrong way it might explain the damage. I am not sure Tmac and I will want to work on it together - that model's not available yet.

Hold on a sec. We've got to get that damaged automaton out of sight. Oh! ye gods, that's very nearly obscene can't it be switched off?

Not the penguins and the duct tape? I can understand why you are onboard, they are still seeking you on 4 continents (Ironically, not Antarctica) and your story is known everywhere where conservationists congregate. Shame on you, Sir.
I think if we take the batteries out, remove the carburettors, cut the red wire and use some ballistic netting we should be able to get the thing under control. It is a prototype, so we should fill in the log before we send it back. Just think, our trials will go to make life happier for lonely gentlemen all over the world. So, Tmac, what was the make of tyres on that bike, and the wheel size? Oh, and it asks for the tyre pressure too.

I'm Back !
I have just been reading the last 2 pages of the log to see what you lot have been up to. Why is it that whenever I am away for a little while mayhem seems to develop on the GD?
Cyber dolls running amok, now I wonder who it was that brought it on board, especially without testing it first. Water being spiked, by god knows what and now the Mayor and his family will be partaking of fluids that will have been spiked! Have you no shame??  If this goes horribly wrong we could be barred from ever making a landfall anywhere ever again. Gentleman, and Patsy, (oops sorry), Pats, is this what you want? Do you want to end up like the SS St Louis? Drifting aimlessly with no home to go to?  I will cover, individually, at a later stage, comments about me bending over the railing! Aren't you pleased I have returned.
