What?

And by Who? Or Whom, if you're posh...

If we get it wrong will there be a hooter sound and the words flashing behind us?

LOOK AT THE TIME!

When orbiting? When landed? When on foot on the moon?

Throughout the descent Aldrin had called out navigation data to Armstrong, who was busy piloting the LM. A few moments before the landing, a light informed Aldrin that at least one of the 67 inches (170 cm) probes hanging from Eagle's footpads had touched the surface, and he said "Contact light!". Three seconds later, Eagle landed and Armstrong said "Shutdown". Aldrin immediately said "Okay, engine stop. ACA - out of detent." Armstrong acknowledged "Out of detent. Auto" and Aldrin continued "Mode control - both auto. Descent engine command override off. Engine arm - off. 413 is in."
Charles Duke, acting as CAPCOM during the landing phase, acknowledged their landing by saying "We copy you down, Eagle".
Armstrong continued with the remainder of the post landing checklist, "Engine arm is off." before responding to Duke with the famous words, "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed." Armstrong's abrupt change of call sign from "Eagle" to "Tranquility Base" caused momentary confusion at Mission Control and Duke remained silent for a couple of seconds before, momentarily tongue-tied, expressing the relief of Mission Control: "Roger, Twan-- Tranquility, we copy you on the ground. You got a bunch of guys about to turn blue. We're breathing again. Thanks a lot."

I know I'm good, just not quite that good. Nearer a demi-god like 'Persius'

Buzz: Hey Neil, you've paid congestion charge right?
Neil: Ah sh*t.....
Buzz: Damn it, now I have to! Do you know how much Amex charges me for using this piece of plastic abroad?!?

Sorry, weak stuff I know, but credit card charges and congestion charge was all I could think about at work today..... 8)
