Of course there's a plot .. we just got a little (back)side-tracked
Yeah, we've certainly reached the bottom now!

I’ve just worked something out. The Borg are cybernetic organisms linked in a hive mind called "the Collective". (Copped from Wikipedia) and he’s in the shower with the vam. water and cyborgs definitely shouldn’t mix. Unless the Borg is waterproof.

Interesting observation there.. I'd think they'd have to be water resistant at very least, but you may have stumbled upon an as yet untapped method of defeating the Borg....hosepipe !

Intel report just in, they've been spotted seemingly now openly out in daylight, bold as brass... A unit has been sent to locate and if needs be intercept and engage....

Ed and Sid found the enemy recon group fairly easily from the directions given by one of the locals who's acting as a scout, the Borg ( as we now know them to be) upon spotting the jeep speeding towards them, began to do their mysterious "disappearing act" .. But just before they could vanish into thin air, Ed stood on the brakes and Sid got off a brilliant shot with the bazooka....

Synth looks as though he'd be pretty relentless in pursuit... ..tho I'm for some reason reminded of the ad. with Paul Hogan where he says .."strewth, there's a fella without any strides on ! "

When the dust and debris had cleared a bit, the lads went to investigate, as luck would have it they found most of the bits of a complete body, the boffins are going to be delighted to pull this lot apart and see how it ticks...

Shock NOOOOOOOOOO! But I’m really liking the pictures of the Borg blowup into pieces.

I've a nasty feeling that the Borg creature the lads recovered is none other than poor old "soapy" from a few days ago ! As if they'd transformed him into some 'orrible half man - half robot thing ... Luckily they wouldn't have gained much intel from him as he was clearly a junior officer, public school twerp type, they'd perhaps obtain the rules of Cricket, and maybe some inane song about rowing a boat or something.. Still, have to pity the poor sod, a thoroughly bad lot these Borg... Sid says the single "googly" eye is starting to give him the willies !
