... MOTLEY NOTES By ALAN KEMP. Ships that Pass in the Night. If it is of any interest to the Fuhrer, I will tell him without further ado that I am allergic to Doodlebugs. He prefers to call them Dynamite Meteors, while others favour Pilotless 'Planes (which I cannot get round my tongue, and which I always read as Pitiless Planes); but I think the genius of the R.A.F. for unbasic English has ...
