You know, I know Derek is of Queenslander stock, so the thing that would be
nearest and dearest to his heart is.... <drum roll>..... (after Beth and the
kids of course)..... SHEEP!

Of course, to make it sci-fi, it'd have to be armour plated,
cyber-enhanced, combat sheep. Bah-a-a-a-a-ad News!

Nah. Sheep are much too small for combat duties. They'd stand no chance at
all against *real* troopers - the Battle Cattle :-)

G'day guys,

While I'm thankful you're generous to make these offers....

This is exactly why you WILL NOT be buying something for Derek for me;)

They are of course not referred to as combat sheep they are Warsheeps the
larger ones being called Battlesheeps (occasionally Bah-a-tlesheeps) and
Cr-ewe-sers , the older ones called sheeps of the line and the smaller
ones
are ewe-scorts

Oddly enough, we're working on a range of Welsh models... under the title of
SpaceSheeps. The designer (not me for once) is in fact part Welsh himself, so
he can get away with it...

Thanks Neil, I was hoping to get the Narns out of my house so I could clean
the carpet. Two platoons enroute to you.
