This is brilliant, especially the Hitchhikers section!

Now, 'Just Maybe', the UFO on Baltic Sea Bed... that IS, of course, a 'Glacial Deposit'... (akin to 'Ritual' in archaeologic speak!)... is 'waking' up?

Not to worry anybody...  ;)

Could Just about fit an X- wing in the big barn.....I think it might upset the gee-gees, though.

Cheers - Phil :)

Though probably not as much as Jar Jar Binks or that B****y Gold 'Droid' would!  ;D
Given the wonders of human creativity, there are bound to be Barns all over, hangaring X wings! Read of someone who bulit an At At in their garden!  ;D

Nah, just levitate it in with the power of your mind.

There appear to be entire TV channels devoted to nothing but programs about barn finds, usually motor vehicles. Finding a  working spaceship would be something though . . .

I can just about get an Eagle transporter into the carpark of the car recovery business over the road. Just need them to move their cars & vans out first . . .

The power of my mind wouldn't be strong enough to levitate an ant, Martyn ! :(

If it had been strong, I'd have levitated the 3 bedroom static caravan out of the barn, years ago.

I'd not thought about that wretched thing for yonks !

When we first moved over here, there was a (at first glance) fairly posh 3 bed 'static' inside the big barn..(looked almost new) ...Took up about a sixth (?) of the floor space....maybe less.
When Von decided that she wanted to put in a couple of 'pens' that side of the barn..the caravan had to go.

It was then that we wondered how on earth someone had got it in, in the first place.
Can only imagine it got 'craned' from the road while the barn was still under construction....No way it could have got up the drive.

From the initial thought of....."Ooh..we can sell this"..it boiled down to having to pay someone to rip it apart...and take it away, on a couple of trailers.

Cheers - Phil. :)

Phil... Hold It! Don't be too hasty! Have a bit 'tinker' with switches to 'see what they do'?
Be careful... "Took up about a sixth (?) of the floor space....maybe less." Could be 'Dimensional Stability' on the blink.
If it has already been ripped apart... WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? 'Somebody / Thing'... may now be stuck here!  :'(
But, maybe not to worry 'too' much. More Caravans in barns around than Blue Police Boxes... a relative has one!
(At least, I 'Think' he's still a relative...? There USED to be Rats in the barn... not so many now... and 'They' have BBQs! And 'They' HAD to have a 'pool'! ... and Heavy Duty Heating boilers...  )! :o

Strangely, Keith.....It did seem to be a bit bigger on the inside than it should have been.  :-\

Ooops ! X_X
