Flange stress damage is one of the many signs that your spoon is in a dangerous condition.

I had a spoon go on me once during a competition - I can still remember some of the screams in the audience. Not all of them. Some of them.

Luckily nobody was injured - but it's a good reminder to check your instruments regularly.

The man doesn't even have one spoon, he's merely a Krupp fanboy living in his fantasy world.

It seems far too demeaning to suggest a custard test to me. However, perhaps the press article on your receipt of the Heisenberg medal should be linked here. ( As you know more than most, the medals are struck from the melted remains of the Hohenstauffen hoard, a spoon collection that was found in the basement of the castle when it was burned in the siege of 1703).

Correct me if I,m wrong, but it was the first time it was awarded to a non-member of the Deutsche Lofflenstaffel.

Don't be modest.

Blib I can only apologise for 'my' post earlier. I'd actually been taken hostage by a small armed band of whisk collectors who used my account to try and discredit your good name within spoon circles.

I feel violated by today's act and I feel that war may indeed be unavoidable if the whisk collectors campaign of terror increases or even heightens.

Custard test? I'll give you a custard test. Here's just a small part of my collection. The very few of you on here that know what you're talking about will notice Krupps, Wiggleswades, a Sturgeon or two and a Blomkvist.

These are just for daily stirring. I can't be bothered to open the 'special' vault just to prove my credentials to the likes of the PH mob.

And yes, before some smart Alec comments, the custard is small. I only had a tin of travel custard in the cupboard.

I hope that now you've surveyed my particulars, we can move on? Jeez, it's like Ormskirk '93 in here at the moment. rolleyes

I am wondering what spoon I required to stir the tea in my traveling mug; to be consumed in a big old Jap bargie thing - but the mug is German made and the brew a full bodied Yakshire gold. The inner OCDist demands something suitable (I mean, an Ikea spoon just will not do!) and wooden stirrers for a brew debase the whole tea drinking experience. I mean, they're ok for the ground up and half baked coffee grounds (one could say that the actual flavour of the costalotabucks is improved by the use of wooden diffuser).

Now that summer is well and truly here, I am desperate not to commit social suicide by offering long, cool drinks without the appropriate stirring accessory.

Does one offer a nicely crafted long handled spoon or one of the many commercially available "swizzle sticks"

Many thanks.

I stand corrected. Apologies. Concours specialists indeed, the clue is in the title. I understand.

I shall have to seek out other stirring enthusiasts in another thread.
