Photo Caption Contest

Actually, this gives me an idea. Let's see who can come up with the best caption for this photo. We'll take submissions until next Saturday. The SAOCA officers will vote and the winner gets the t-shirt of their choice from the T-Shirt Shop linked to our website. SAOCA Officers are not eligible, but here's my captions:

"My don't the British think of everything?"

"I wonder if she'll fit on my badge bar?"

"Now THAT'S a pair of spot lamps!"
