Crumbs they have built an extension on. Well done Leila and Feny. ``Ming: It is warm in here. ``Zola: Wonderful. I will put the kettle on. ``Captain: Very nice. ``Jarry: Prima class. ``Ming. ``Zola: The fridge is full up. I am not really hungry, but toast and jam may go down as a stop gap. So it is us 7aliens? ``Vanna: Ming you can have the store room. ``Ming: Okay. ``Captain: We are going to try out the new sleeping quarters, so zimo. ``H-Pilot: Pilot to Farm permission to land, over. ``Vanna: Negative, your retractable undercarriage is not down. ``H-Pilot: Pilot to Farm, that is because I am landing on the pond, over. ``Vanna: The ice is 5cm thick, and your weight will crack it. ``H-Pilot: I will go on a diet. ``Feny: She is up to her old tricks again. ``Vanna: Yes, but you may get wet feet. ``H-Pilot: Down. --- ``Feny: Why do you always have to be right? ``Vanna: I was thinking of your lovely shoes, and I did not want you to ruin them, stepping into big puddles. ``Feny: Thank you Vanna, it is appreciated and I will get something done about it. ``Vanna: Morning Pilot, meet Ming, our latest traveller. ``H-Pilot: Hi Ming. ``Ming: Hi Pilot. ``Vanna: You and Leila have done a marvellous job, and thank you, and the crew are happy. ``Zola: I am doing the drinks. ``Feny: We both have coffee’s please. ``H-Pilot: Please Vanna, will you invite me up to Cassiopeia? ``Vanna: You are on the waiting list, but as Feny has explained to you, we have been flying around the galaxy. ``H-Pilot: Impressive and another reason to come up. ``Vanna: Will you leave your helicopter here whilst you are away? ``H-Pilot: Yes, and I will cover it up. ``Vanna: My girlfriend will get jealous. -|- ``Zola: Yes I will, but if I have to take second place for a few days, I will. ``H-Pilot: I must admit, I do like you, as a person. ``Zola: Can you Earth men cope with both of us? ``H-Pilot: I will let you know afterwards. ``Feny: That is enough of that talk. I can see why the Bears are segregated from the Cats. ``Ming: Too right, as men cannot control themselves. ``Zola: Anyone hungry, as I am cooking breakfast at lunchtime. Ming I need some help please. ``Tetra: Morning Feny and Pilot, I had crashed out. ``Feny: That is a good sign. ``Vanna: Well Pilot, I now have my IMC grade one and Tetra and Zola, both have their VFR equivalents. ``H-Pilot: Absolutely wonderful and congratulations, can you arrange for some aerobatic flying please? ``Vanna: I can go one better than that, you can go on the courses in zero gravity. ``H-Pilot: The sooner the better. ``Vanna: I will try and arrange it, but cannot make any promises, as it all has to be approved. ``H-Pilot: Thanks. {European Space Agency ~ 2} ``Operator: Boss, I have another two predicted scrambled messages in, first one says ‘sausages & mash’ and the second one says ‘2 rashers’. I have checked the log and there was one entry by the day team, which said, ‘scrambled egg’. ``Boss: I honestly do not know what we can do, but I think someone must be very hungry and are having a yolk on us. I will talk to the day Manager in the morning, and request further verification. ``Operator: Okay Boss. I will settle for that for now. {Corley Farm ~ 5} ``Captain: Can you help me to translate and convert into Earth language. ``Vanna: The sharp c ‘ç’ is cedilla, equivalent to Earth female gender. The æ ‘æ’ is a diphthong equal to Earth male gender, and the long f ‘ƒ’ is our 8 gender, which they do not have. ``Captain: Now I see it, thanks. ``Vanna: Whist I am here, let us try a satellite link up. --- We are in, and transmitting. We will tell it to transmit a test card, for 30 minutes. It will take at least 5 minutes to get to Algol. The problem is that I need a conversion table to calculate their frequency difference. ``Captain: So Algol will transmit it back to Cassiopeia? ``Vanna: That is the idea, because it will take a while for Planet-Q to come on line. I will send a SOS message to Incus, as we should be compatible as he has one of our computers. I will send ‘two trifles’.
