Baldrick's Cunning Plan

When we stopped in Port Bannatyne a few weeks back Roger spotted a yacht being stored on the hard – Baldrick’s Cunning Plan. We all started laughing hysterically as we recalled episodes of Blackadder! I could not help but wonder whether the idea of buying a yacht to sail around Britain falls into the same class of plans?

‘As cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University but has moved on and is now working for the UN at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning’

Joke

Baldrick and Blackadder discussing how the war began:

Private Baldrick:’ I heard it started when some fella called Archie Duke shot an ostrich ‘cos he was hungry’.

Captain Blackadder: ‘I think you mean it started when the Arch Duke of Austro-Hungary got shot’.

Private Baldrick: ‘No, there was definitely an ostrich involved’.
