Try it with the blast shield down (not for the contest)

Navi Gay Shun.
That looks familiar :)


All Roads Lead to the Emperor

Sean O' Naughtaghin was from New Donegal. He was over at the Emperor's palace building the toy railway system. The palace was huge and opulent with peacocks, carefully coutured hedges and an intricate network of pathways. Sean became lost. He eventually stumbled across a gold-plated gate with amazing decorations. As he went through the gate he heard someone shout "Get away from there you pleb!"

Sean was frogmarched over to his foreman. The guard was agitated, telling them that they had a special workman's entrance just for the railway crew. The foreman said "Next time use the Navvy Gate Sean!"
 
Keep practising my padawans but beware of the seductive nature of the Dark Side.

I was typing a letter to a customer. I paused to read it, wondering how I could work a pun into it.
 
Lost in space (station)

'Sorry to disturb you Captain, it's Wilkins. He's just called in, saying that he's lost.'

'Wilkins, this is the captain, are you seriously telling me that you're lost? I thought you got top marks on your navigation exam at the academy?'

'Sorry sir, there was nothing like this at the academy. Everything looks the same, I don't know where I am.'

'That's just typical of the academy , they teach kids how to navigate the stars but don't teach them how to find their way around a space station. They forget how confusing space stations can be for first timers.'
 
Come on! More Drabbles!

I'm sure the show is proving to be a bit of a distraction so I'll make it late Thursday before I put up the poll.

As always, just yell out if you need more time for your entry, either here or by PM.
 
A Little Reminder..

Today is the last day to get your Drabbles about Navigation in. There ain't many entries so plenty of space for your little Drabble.

And with less Drabbles, that means you have more chance of winning.

What are you waiting for? Get yer Drabbles in!
 
i just lost my drabble mojo :D try get back on it next one.

Looks like your mojo and my mojo have gone out on a date, L. G. My brain cells are bouncing off each other looking for inspiration. :S :rolleyes:

Where's me muse ???????????

... I can't even think of a bad pun :-(

The last few subjects have been hard and just when you get an idea someone else has already written a better drabble:( Maybe the next subject will be easier
 
Sorry it's a bit last minute, my mojo's been a little AWOL too....

Glitter

The Orca class yacht gracefully swept through the glittering ice rings of the giant planet, alternately arcing above and below their plane, not unlike the long extinct creature after which it was named.

The affluent passengers gazed awestruck, uttering occasional gasps. They were getting their money's worth on this trip, thought Tav as he continued to override the navigation system collision warnings.

Manoeuvering close in to a massive icy berg, the distant sun's light refracted and sparkled iridescently throughout the ship. Applause from the cargo. He'd heard it a hundred times before.

The silently approaching pirate had no such distractions.

Don't you feel better for getting that out of your brain and onto paper? Talk about last minute! The length of the incubation period shows. It's a very healthy Drabble.

You were very lucky to slide into the contest just as the doors were closing. The more entries the merrier, but next time a little PM to the poll host wouldn't go amiss.
