Skewers

[Peripatetic Phil]

Razor isn't around any more, Stu (more's the pity).

Ray was last seen in October of last year.  I spoke to him earlier in the year and he had just lost his Dad at the time, so was feeling pretty low.  He did say that he was looking forward to getting stuck in to some cookery again (both Indian and Chinese) but that was the last I heard from him; I'll send him another PM and see if I can encourage him back.

Razor isn't around any more, Stu (more's the pity). I'm afraid the sort of skewers we have don't have screws - they're just push on wooden handles. Mine's *did* come off in the wash at first but they're solid nowadays. I'm not sure what you mean by bending the tip. Ours are 4mm square-section stainless steel - you couldn't bend them with a vice without heating them first.

Perhaps a photo of the problem might help?

Ok thanks for letting me know Naga. 
I'm trying to think of how to say what I want but can't at mom.   
I'll send a picture.

Cheers

Come on Naga. Unless you are talking about frail women, old men or little girls..can't be bent without a vice or heating? Haahah.

Dude I could bend one with my butt cheeks if pressed. But seriously though, between two hands, a girl could do that (OK a hefty girl). I speak from experience by the way (yes, use of the knee may be required, depending on how they've been tempered).

You must be superweak or something.

I think the CERN LHC is looking for that particle in its new souped-up phase. Perhaps you had it all along. Could've saved billions.  ;D

CORRECTION:  SHOULD SAY:  THANKS FOR LETTING ME KNOW ABOUT RAZOR..

Depending on the length, I'd like to see that.  ;D

And not in a Jimmy Saville sort of way but more of an A. Abbot Physics sort of way.

No need to shout  ;D ;D

I don't even want to think about it......stop it now !!!

[Gav Iscon]

And don't start me off about CERN.

I'm not sure about A.Abbot (is that an A-level physics text? I have a very vague memory of such). No this is more of a B.Butt sort of effort.

But(t) you're right, the length matters. Unless you sit on it of course!    ;D

No need to be conCERNed Gav. We all know that Froggy torus is the death knell for us all. We're doomed...dooooomed!  ;D
