'Now the fat's in the fire!'
Снарядов небось хватит. Полны ими погреба. Легче дыни показался Родиону третий снаряд. Только бы пустить его поскорее, только бы дым поскорей повалил из купола. А там пойдёт писать губерния! (В. Катаев, Родион Жуков) — Never fear, there's no lack of projectiles. The hold is full of them. Lighter then a cantaloupe did the third one seem to Rodion. The only thing was to fire it as quickly as possible; the only thing was to have the smoke come billowing out of that cupola - but quick. And after that the party would really get lively!
