Oh, I've missed your fics! This was hilarious. "our spaceship's stuck in one of your elephants" may be the best line I've read all year...

Also:

"Let go of me, you idiot!" Avon said.

"Same to you!" Vila said resentfully, pulling loose.

Ahaha, Avon <3

Yes, I'm sure that the development of a dragon-based air transport business would be just Jenna's cup of tea, actually. This was a lot of fun, thank you. :-)

*Applause* Well Done and I love the mention of a certain skinny bloke with a kitten on his shoulder. :¬)

I had to include him since they went to the Curry Gardens.

That is enormous fun. :)

"Sounds a bit like a Ponder Stibbons, that chap."

Ponder Stibbons is far nicer than Avon, though. :)

Then there's Blake. He's a revolutionary and he wouldn't stand for the city being run by tyrant.

Obtypo: Needs an "a" before "tyrant".

We already have one man, one vote, and it's his.

Brilliant line!

I agree!

Thanks for catching the typo - fixed. I'm hopeless at finding my own as I see what I expect to see.
