These names of course, lead to the all-important name-shortening in familiar surroundings - becoming Char, Yo, Geo, Lou and Con whenever there's a group of MAC flyers gathered (which isn't very often, because they tend to stay on the ground a lot, in case they get mistaken for invading Greek Air Force aircraft, by trigger-happy Turkish Cypriots). This situation naturally, has led to a number of MAC members (when they do occasionally get airborne), setting speed and distance records, encouraged by Turkish Cypriot AA fire, and this creates a.....

This discussion disclosed the previously unknown fact that WA has submitted a territorial claim over western Tazzy because of the Iron Ore in Savage River and the surrounding area. "Everyone knows that WA, me, Gina & the Twigster have the rights to all Iron Ore in Aussie, so we therefore make a claim to Western Tasmania" said Marky Mark in his speech to the United Nations.

Just then, two things happened; the Minister for Industry, Energy and Emissions Reduction (a neat little combination) had been writing a text to Barnaby; "Hi Barnaby mate, that XXXX Scomo has nobbled me for a week for the last text I sent and I'm XXXXXXXX mad about it. We all know he's a XXXX, it's just that none of us have heard him say anything bad............." when the news of the WA attempted coup in Tasmania was announced. He positively glowed; this would mean more lunches, dinners and overseas travel. The second thing occurred in the Tasmanian Parliament half an hour later when it was announced that Field Marshall James Gerald Cook, our beloved Cappy, had just been appointed Governor General of Tasmania. Cappy and Turbo were both in the bar of the Hyatt on the Park in Melbourne. They both lifted their phones at the same time and after listening Turbo in a raised voice, having noticed Cappy said, "Couldn't have appointed a better person, Good Show!" Cappy positively beamed and appointed him Operations Suprintendant, and bull as Aide de Camp for Transport. Tasmania being a Soverign State and the Field Marshal acting in the place of the Queen, Cappy declared war on WA if they advanced beyond Bass Strait. Gina phoned the Minister for Industry, Energy and Emission Reduction, and he washed his hands of it, so ................

As the word spread around Tasmania and the Tasmanians started to sharpen wooden stakes to use as spears, and carve realistic-looking wooden guns (out of Tassie Oak, of course) - little did the Tasmanians understand that they were dealing with a State where both the SAS, and Australia's Collins-class submarines, were based - at Swanbourne and HMAS Stirling, respectively. Mark McGowan called up his old Navy boss, and also spoke to the SAS C.O. - and within hours, the full complement of Australia's currently-serviceable Collins-class submarine force (all 2 of them) were loaded up with the full complement of the Swanbourne SAS detachment, and they set sail for Tasmania, arriving 16 days later, after several in-trip repairs (the Collins-class never were noted for speed or reliability) - and upon arrival on the West Coast of Tasmania, the entire SAS detachment melted into the Tassie West Coast rainforest. The Island was under the control of W.A. within 2 days, as the token Tasmanian resistance totally collapsed, and the carved firearms had little deterrent effect on the Afghanistan-hardened SAS troops. The OIC of the invading SAS force took over the Tasmanian Parliament, and announced that the Tasmanian Parliament had just been dissolved under orders from Mark McGowan, and all Tasmanians would now be subject to W.A. laws and regulations. Bull recoiled in horror, this was the stuff of nightmares - he'd be obliged to wear a mask now, and the likelihood of major Tassie lockdowns loomed large on the horizon. He wasn't going to wear this, his ancestry was pure Port Arthur convict ancestry, and he was used to telling authorities where to shove their......... Edited February 7, 2022 by onetrack
