Plastic duck armada is heading for Britain!

[LymingtonPugwash]

With all sensible people looking to escape Britain, these airheads are all aiming at getting to Britain! Well, I don't think any Drake will be wanting to stop the armada this time! Especially as they are likely to be related to Drake anyway? /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif Geddit? Geddit? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I rememberthis one cropping up a few years ago. Is it an urban/ocean myth?

Reported on Radio 2 yesterday morning. They found a route around the north of Canada and have appeared on the East Coast of the US. It is only a matter of time before Britain opens its arms to this new influx of refugees. Social Workers across western Britain are getting prepared and doing evening courses in Mandarin.

Well, there's no point ducking the issue or grousing about it. Perhaps Jemima Khan could become roving minister for ducks? Geddit?!

I know a guy who towed one of those when sailing across the Atlantic. Arriving on the other side the duck had nearly sunk due to marine growth on it's bottom. So if not poperly antifouled a standard duck will certainly not be able to drift around that long....

This is all rather old-hat. We have an Annual Duck Race here. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
