Biggles Bingo v.2

[sholio]

I was struggling so hard with my original Biggles Bingo card that I decided to use modly prerogative and roll again. (I rarely feel this blocked on one of these bingo card games, but that one was just doing *nothing* for me; everything I wanted to write, I had already written.) Either this one will work out better, or I might have better luck with the first one if I'm procrastinating on this one.

Daring escape	Pirates	Car crash in a high-speed chase	Flying the enemy's plane	Mad elephant
Secret tunnel	Undercover with the enemy	Crustaceans	Water landing	Dinner invitations
Vague tropical fever	Land mines	WILD CARD	Secret Ruritanian royalty	Looking great on a horse
Imprisoned in a tower	Praising the Enemy	Held at gunpoint by a dashing nemesis	Castles	Mistaking your friend for an enemy
Storm	Chasing butterflies	Sandstorm	Electric centipedes	Nearly drowned

I think I'm liking this one better already. Also, I was pleased that the one square I'd already started something for (Dinner Invitations) actually repeated on this card by pure chance!

Row 4 is literally just the plot of Biggles & Co ...

Hahaha, you're right!

I like this card very much.

[sholio]

Yesssss. I don't know why I was having so much trouble with the other one, but I already have several ideas just from glancing over these prompts!

Please write Bertie and crustaceans.

[sholio]

Bertie deserves a nice crustacean.

Oh, that is a nice one! Vague tropical fever, please? And sandstorm? I love WEJ’s descriptions of sandstorms...

I second the Vague Tropical Fevers and am very fond of Nearly Drowned !

Electrical centipedes is just marvelous. No scenarios come to mind exactly, it's the very concept that is tickling.

Is the elephant mad as in angry?

[rachelmanija]

In musth!

Scientific investigation of musth is problematic because even the most placid elephants become violent toward humans and other elephants during musth.

Terrifying, but fascinating from a scientific point of view. Thank you kindly for the link!

I have to refresh my memory of the elephant attack.

I'm strangely drawn to chasing butterflies...

Hope this board stimulates you, and yes, line four is & Co!

Sometimes one just stares at prompts and the brain goes... "hmmmmmmmm.... nope."
