Blue Fender

[Wussername]

Does the forum think that we should have a blue fender award?

Awarded annually.

For those who commit a faux pas.

Or have I done so unwittingly?

Does Robin need some spares then?

[Wussername]

Ouch! 

I was thinking that Grendel could make us a miniature one to be worn on ones blazer or yachting cap.

I think we will need more than just one!!!!!!

 

Perhaps a turned wooden one on a stand could be made

[Jonathan]

I suspect that there's a small patch of London air that turns blue every time this topic is revived!  

 

Anyway ... here's a blue fender badge that can be bought on e-bay for 99p!

.... or was that not what you had in mind?

No good, I would win every year!

The blue fender award (the 99p badge) can proudly be sponsored by the NBN...

I've got several odd, spare, blue fenders that I've fished out of the river. Quite happy to present one to the forum as an award, presumably to hang over the bow!

[Gracie]

I do think you lot are being a tad unkind to The Rascal for the blue fender incident, if there is such an award, it would only be fitting that Robin be awarded the very first one, don't you think? 

He's never going to be allowed to live that one down is he? lol

Great idea, Lets do it.  However it better not be retrospect otherwise I'd be due a permanent one.

I nominate LR to be the first recipient of the blue fender award,  to be held for a full year.  In the meantime we can nominate the next recipient when LR is due to hand it over.

Now we need to find a suitable 'Trophy', one that can be engraved for all to view through eternity.

Suggestions?

Okay, so I'll scrub one of my old blue fenders. Perhaps a blue fender adorned flag for the boat and a real blue fender to adorn the collar of the of-fender.

Mens absentia ut pendulum caerulus.

Ladies absence of the blue like a pendulum

 

Aha!  bet you didn't think I could translate Latin now did you? - Pretty easy really! 

Griff

[Polly]

Homo =man Mens = mind

I like your translation best but I meant 'Absent mind so blue pendulum' as a motto for the award. 

Pendulum could be the fender.........? Or...........

[MauriceMynah]

I just hate it when people throw  latin phrases into their conversations ad hoc.

[JanetAnne]

Would such an award be presented at the Salhouse annual meet? Just thinking that if it was awarded early in the season you would all have a good chance of seeing the recipient and trophy out on the water!

[Hockham Admiral]

I think that you lot are very cruel to our video main man................

To be fair to LR it is a small blue fender and it is very well hidden!

[merlin65uk]

But......

All my fenders are blue...! 

[CambridgeCabby]

A blue fender pennant to be flown when the holder of the award is aboard perhaps ??

[BroadAmbition]

I was going to comment on this thread again, but thought better of it as it would only draw forumites attention to it once more
