Sent a lad out a few years back on a great wind up, to buy a new pen knife. He was admiring one of the lads Swiss Army knives and could'nt decide on that or an Opinel. Even better than that, says I, get a Swiss Navy knife. They're blue and much more corrosion resistant.:001_smile:

Of course a couple of the other lads joined in, ''yeh, they've got a fish hook remover'', and ''flotation pockets so they don't sink if they go overboard''

Next week he came in on Monday morning and said he'd tried to get said knife and that one shop had never heard of it, another put the phone down, and a third burst out laughing! We kept it going for a good while, easy in those pre-google days. Couple of months later we wound him up about a gas run TV, but thats another story:biggrin:

i had a young groundie trying to bump start a chainsaw once, the draw cord snapped and i said its fine run the bar along the length of that log with the chain brake off so the chain goes round and when you get to the end flick the kill switch to on, he must have tried it 4 or 5 times before i cracked up :biggrin:

Just had a look in the goodie bag and have found a prize for 'Those who tried, but didn't quite get it'! (Send me your details Skyhuck and you won't feel left out :wink:)

 

WOW!!!!:thumbup:

 

What a very kind offer!!! Thank you very much!!!

 

BUT I really do not feel left out, I clearly just did not "get it", I was expecting something different, I guess I thought people would submit posts that included the number 9.

 

I am sorry if my post was taken as any thing other than a genuine equerry, I really did not wish to cause any offense, if I have please accept my humble apology :blushing:

 

Could I please nominate Rich rules to receive the additional price, as he was the next nearest and clearly understood the competition better than me.
