Episode 1088 - The Defence: Albi, Beagle, Chela, Gina, Leila, Master, Mod, Tetra, Vanna, Zola, ~ 10 ``Beagle: I have explained to Mod that it is night time in Cassiopeia. ``Vanna: Quano Mod. ``Mod: Good zonule. I have looked into your problem, and you will need two new parallel feeds from your main supply. Therefore the main company can install that at no charge to yourselves, as it comes under public services. ``Mob: However, to keep within new specification, you will need to lay two lots of fresh cable; one to the control tower and the other one to runway lighting. What is left over can be redirected to normal lighting which will balance everything out. ``Vanna: Wonderful answer and I agree. ``Mod: I have a suggestion about your generator! ``Vanna: Go on! ``Mod: We have a spare generator, which has hardly been used up at Air defences base, where I come from. It was for a building project which never was completed. I can arrange for that to be sold off to you. ``Vanna: Brilliant and make it happen. We will see you okay with a nice tip. ``Mod: Zarfs. Leave it with me, and I will get back to you. ``Beagle: I will let you get back to sleep. Zimo. ``Vanna: At least we do not have to leave until this afternoon, so I can still have a lie in. {Cosmo, Citadel in transit to Earth ~ 11} ``Albi: Hatches secured and 5 greens. Tetra? ``Tetra: Course laid in for Earth. Master? ``Master: Unlocking orbit. Vanna? ``Vanna: Mach 90 and zoom. ``Master: All in the Clear. ETA Tetra? ``Tetra: Estimated 8-hours allowing for air traffic congestion. [Cosmo Mess] ``Albi: I have spoken with my Mum and she is going to talk to the farmer, and find out what the status quo is. ``Tetra: Good, and we will wait, because you have to pay a yearly fee to the SAA. There is a ¢250 survey charge. You will need to add it, to your insurance policy, so it starts mounting up. ``Albi: You win. ``Vanna: Quano stranger. ``Zola: Quano Vanna, but I do not want to talk about the past. ``Vanna: Fine with me. I am just quinned that you are here, especially for the Chinese. ``Chela: What about this big trip you are arranging? ``Vanna: The problem is that we have logistic problems, which means 20 soldiers and 4, crew. Therefore come up with some alternatives, I will be quinned to hear from you. ``Chela: Ouch! So you are already full up? ``Vanna: I have been offered 50 soldiers, but how do we move them? ``Tetra: We could take the Vulcan with us, and leave it in running mode, so we could pack another 12 soldiers in. ``Vanna: That is a possibility, so I will talk to Pilot, but we will be over our maximum all-up-weight. ``Chela: You have the biggest Saucer? ``Vanna: Zaa, in the known local Cosmos. So talk to Albi as well, as he should come up with something. ``Chela: I will. ``Zola: I certainly will not be coming, regardless. ``Gina: So far so good. ``Vanna: I will put you in the first hop, with Leila, Chela and Zola. ``Gina: Zarfs: I hear you talking about a big trip, how are you going to have to do it? ``Vanna: Reluctantly, we have to say good bye to the cartel. ``Gina: New life for old life! ``Vanna: Cassiopeia is an advanced culture and all the other worlds have to understand, good or bad that we are here to maintain the peace at all costs. We are fortunate we can live for a thousand years, unlike some other worlds. We are then more likely to get their consideration of being mutual friends, and not create problems or tensions. Look at what happened with Draco? We never expected to do all this. ``Gina: Zarfs. It was more of a passing thought, but it appears to have been put on your shoulders to resolve. ``Vanna: I do not always like, what I have to do. [Cosmo Bridge] ``Tetra: Mach Zero. ``Master: Checking for objects and there are a few around, but nothing out of the ordinary. ``Vanna: I have two hops so we will hover at 28Km for final clearance. ``Master: Locking orbit. All modes activated. ``Vanna: Starting Hop 1 of two hops. ``Master: I will watch as things change. < Previous Page 1087 Vega <27.3.4> Warm [00 ] 0988 <1089> 01/168] Next Page 1089> |
