Nice one dude! :D

It's more a pity that it wasn't the office manager that was squished. Now /that/ would've merited kudos.

Impressive efficiency of the rotors on that whirligig. The blades were hardly turning atall.  :-D

I know sweetness.  :-P I am a pilot. Not rotary, but video of a SEL would be the same.

I love your spelling - draught. Here, many people would pronounce it "drawt" because they don't know the word. I spell it draught rather than the customary "draft" here just to piss other Americans off.  (angel) But you figured that. 

Over here, 'draft' and 'draught' have different meanings. Although that may be a US influence:

draught beer
draught/breeze
draft (a) document. I think that may originally have been 'draught' too, but Word watermarks may have fucked it up.

Apparently it deviated from "draught" in the 17th Century. Had we invented America by then?

Yes, the pilgrims invented it in the early 17c.

We used to have a costs draughtsman at work. So, instead of working on drafting claim forms all day, he should've been playing draughts. It would have gone down well with him.

If wee were in a Free House, I could say, "My, it is draughty in here!" and possibly be right on both counts. Especially if me billfold is out.  :-P

Haughty.

Somes ran away because of your nasty bishops, vicars and priests what tried to play with our young boys' pee-pees and oppress us. Cheeky monkeys, the lot of you!

We farted in your general direction as we left. We ended up buying tea at a better price direct from India. Columbus was an idiot.

Etymology of flagon, if you please.  :-)

When you and I rule the World, our first bit of enforcement should be to beat about the face, breast,chest neck and head those who use draft for draught.

That isn't extremist, is it?

Do they, perchance, call you Jesse now?

Now that is some interesting shot right there.
