Trumpeter 01695 1/72 Soviet Tu-22 Blind Person Tactical Bomber model kit ◆

Reminds me of the time I saw something called "Turkey Bread" at the bakery, they meant Turkish bread!

Where's the flying guide dog?

[general rocket]

My wife (who is totally blind) found it amusing, I found that concerning.

Good one
In Cowboy terms there is a famous pistol made by and called 'LeMat' [the surname of its inventor/maker]
Whenever one comes up on ebay they translate it to 'The Rug' !
Honestly

I'm glad she did, I didn't want it to be taken in the wrong way by anyone. It is more a translation thing than anything nasty. When I first saw the description what came to mind was a Tu22 drone, for some reason "Blind man" to me came across as no pilot lol. I was being far too metaphorical perhaps!

I like it! I'm Aussie so our slang and pronunciations lead to lots of misunderstandings and confusion.

A 1/72 pilot dog. That would be a cool additon!

Don't worry about it, I have just painted her a T shirt to commemorate one of my heart attacks last year.



Work out the joke for yourself.


A pilot dog? Muttley maybe?
