It so happens that I’m digitising Roald Dahl’s first book, written when he was 
still a Flight Lieutenant in the Royal Air Force, and I came across this. 
Forgive any lack of political correctness - it was a very long time ago:

> “I've just found a nest of widgets,” he said, and looked around in triumph. 
> “Widgets?” said Stuffy. “Widgets? Never heard of them!” 
> But Jamface went on. “As I said, I've just found a nest of widgets located in 
> the rear turret of my plane. There were twelve of them very young ones.” 
> “What are widgets?" asked Gus. 
> “It's very simple,” said Jamface. “Widgets are the young of gremlins and 
> fifinellas. No one knows until they grow up whether they are going to turn 
> into males or females, but it's usually males; in each nest of twelve widgets 
> only one will eventually turn into a fifinella.” 

Back to work…
