bigbird Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Red in a pedigree only means the dog has had success in trials as you know. Doesn't mean to say dogs in black are not 'quality', they may be siblings of dogs in red for example that for one reason or another have never trialled. Also that they have but we're never in the awards of course. It's a minefield until you get in the know - and then too!

Rupert10 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Lol cocker boy. Yes if only I had Digweed, Shumacher, Tiger Woods and the like on hand lol. Bet they could turn a real old duffer like me into a force to be reckoned with. Names like that can very likely put the shine on any old ****. Lol.

But the guys at the top know the score, the full sp, the game,inside out. I would rather learn from someone that has been to the top than someone that will never reach base camp.

Who would have thought a young Yuri Gagarin would be with you at school one minute and the first man in outer space the next. Just goes to show you, anything is possible.

He visited the fate me and Minton were spoon bending at. . Sorry I was taking things for granted. But why you would mention the first man in outer space, Mr Gagarin, in your post about bending spoons I don't know?. Maybe you would have been better to mention mr Geller?

Rupert10 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 No it was Gagarin. Gellar was the first man in outer space. Wasn't he? Anyway, which ever one it was he was no spoon bender. Minton beat him all hands down. The fella turned up with his own spoon but he put it down on the table at the fate. Ethel De La Vere (our Mayors housekeeper) picked his spoon up by mistake and mixed it up with all the others on the table. She passed him a proper Sheffield Steel spoon to bend but he couldn't. He said the planets had to be aligned for it to work or something of that nature. His face went beetroot red trying to bend the thing.lol. Anyway. I placed one end of the spoon in Mintons mouth and held on to the other. Then I gave the order. Where's ya tail ! One bent spoon. One rosette.

Rupert10 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Lol. Nothing worse than getting your Gagarins mixed up with your Gellers. I think Gagarin did bend spoons as well you know? In the Apollo he showed how to do it because the gravity was missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocker boy Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) Lol. Nothing worse than getting your Gagarins mixed up with your Gellers. . Exactly. A slight mistake put you alongside a Russian cosmonaut that pushed man's boundaries when you really needed a waste of time Israeli to give your story some humour. It's just as easy to make the mistake between a pup from the best and a pup from someone that doesn't know which end of a dog to feed, but has a fancy website. All the best.
