Many of you on this thread would be sent on an extended tour of Rwanda.

Wonderful place, beautiful scenery and a long culture of tea drinking.

Set of tea, sugar and caddy spoons dating back to King Nigel XIII, c.1561, Kigoma.

I heard on the grapevine this week that Adrian Newey as had enough of the politics and media storm around Horner at Red Bull. He wants out. Disillusioned by F1, I'm told he’s looking to progress a long held personal desire to prove that applying the coanda effect to teaspoon design can demonstrably improve the taste of a good brew. Genius or madman? I believe Ross Brawn secretly tried it a few years ago, but the resultant downforce was so strong the milk and tea would separated in a sort of centrifuge effect. Ross abandoned the idea as wholly unworkable outside of the simulator.

Perhaps Dick Semen could make a comeback and stir for Krupp? Blib is a dead ringer for that Alfred Neubauer (I always wondered about those paternity rumours).

Perhaps it will be a victory of brain over Brawn. Personally I think the Bernoulli effect has to be factored in too.

I believe Krupp attempted to recruit Newey with a blank cheque post-Williams, having heard rumours of his secret love of stirring implements. The deal fell through when they insisted he re-locate to their skunk-works in Teebeutelstadt.

Thinking of getting some spoons personalised this would be a nice treat for the wife - thoughts ? Rude comments / abuse not acceptable and will be reported.

^ There’s a lot to take in, isn’t there? It seems to be one step forward, two steps back, Mr User.

Mr User, you're in a desert, walking along in the sand when all of a sudden you look down and see a tortoise. It's crawling toward you. You reach down and flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over. But it can't. Not with out your help. But you're not helping. Why is that?

The tongs are noteworthy, sitting at the intersection of bad taste, poor materials and bad presentation.
Standards are slipping around these parts, no wonder anonymity is sought.....

While perusing ‘The Dull Men’s Club’, not sure if Blib still has the Chair?, I found this and thought you lot may be able to illuminate? A chap found it amongst his late father’s possessions, covered in soot.
