There are times when I read the fora and think that a swastika would be the most appropriate burgee. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
There are plenty of sail boat owners who have the burgee and I think it is fine. I need the XL (or maybe XXL) size as well....cause most things shrink with age don't they?
Its not my fault my metabolism has slowed down! /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
I'm having 20 hats made in dark blue, with a new logo for YBW lounge customers!! With a new mouse and glass logo, with "YBW Lounge Lizard" on it. YBW above the logo and lounge lizard below if any body wants to see the mouse and glass, I can e mail it to you, it's on another hat now, in black, as soon as the new logo is up and running I'll post it, if I can figure out how to do it! Not the same as Haydn's, and not in competition, but for the lounge really. Dont know what the cost is right now, they are being made in Puerto Pollensa, by a friend in the business.
'Twas I that cobbled together the design for the Forum Burgee and its absolutely true to say that it was primarily imtended for MoboChatters cos it was the mobo forum that raised the idea and everone was pretty parochial then (before the days of the Lounge etc).
It was designed 'tongue in cheek' by combining some odd bits of clipart and was also intended to take the p*ss out of ourselves a bit by making it reflect the way others tend to see us....hence the drink, and the fact that we are a web based community....the mouse.
I never expected it to become reality but a certain hlb saw it and, without reference to me, got an aquaintance of his to run a few up ....and then some more...and some more.....
If you dont like it theres nothing stopping you doing something different !!!!
Maybe the time has come for ybw to officially embrace a Forums Burgee?
Well as a Yottie, I for one appreciate your efforts and abilities. I dont want a burgee that looks like a burgee, and the YBW one that I have fluttering over Full Circle is a big enough p!ss take not to be taken seriously by my local 'Senior' YCs.
I vote we keep the one we have.
2 x XL Sweatshirts please. One in Pink and one in Blue. Just to increase the P!ss take factor.
And to sailorman - today I am wearing Effing Fat Wasp Yellow Canterbury trousers. N Luther esq appears to have a Fat Bast@rds YC, shouldnt we form the East Coast Beer Wave section of that august organ?
