Quite a few other things have happened since you joined the conversation. Are you wanting to be associated with all of them? Or are you one of these people who pick the juicy bits and discard the remainder, hoping someone else will collect them and remove all trace of the link back to you? Just asking. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Mick Bonwick Posted August 30, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted August 30, 2019 I witnessed a severe case of canopy nudging yesterday. I had forgotten to take my camera with me to the site of the event, but it happened, really it did. The practitioner is quite well known to readers of this forum and has owned up to some fairly typical examples of the art in the past. Let's see if anybody can guess who it might be . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AY Mod Posted August 30, 2019 Moderators Share Posted August 30, 2019 I believe there was a degree of entrapment in this case whereby two parts of a structure which had limited contact surfaces had been placed in a prominent position and unaffixed to said layout. I am kicking myself in hindsight that I did not spot this obvious booby trap and the whole substructure fell apart akin to the bits flying off a clown's car. I also find it remarkably opportune that Oberwachtmeister Bonwick of Der Nudgenpolizei chose that very moment to walk through the door catching me red-faced and obviously guilty. He's ever watchful and later determined (Minority Report style) that I was guilty of an offence by having an elbow within the arc of potential damage to a signal post - an advisory notice was handed out. 1 2 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah! A classic example of the Bonwick Manoeuvre which the York Deflection failed to counter on this occasion. 1 2 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bonwick Manoeuvre is much prized by the aficionado of nudger-trapping. The delicate interplay of scenery, trapper and nudger beats football any day 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ardbealach Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Does the York Deflection require the casual positioning of the left hand on the hip, or is that optional extra? AM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
