Sorry Mark, but the thread wasn't in the cockpit with you, that was cortella rope actually.
Common mistake really.
Foiled again hun.
Enjoy your patrol anyway..
Oh and give my regards to the cylon patrol you are heading for..
AJ, have you given up buying drinks for Borellian Noman women now, that you have started buying drinks for threads?
Tell you what, why don't you buy this nice little pink ribbon a drink and I'll take the thread for a walk instead.
(the siress swiftly swaps the thread in AJ's hand for the ribbon, and sneaks away...)
