[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 297915"] I think (to the extent that anybody cares) that it's like a self-fulfilling prophecy. One guy I had really high hopes for (from a distance) was Will Purdey. He came so close to perfection with many of his earlier ones that you could see (or at least I imagined I could see) that his deviations from the [i]beaux ideal[/i] shapes he started out from were done in a spirit of playfulness. But it seems (and I wasn't there, so I don't know) that the guys with the plentiful long green were used to flying snails and reverse volcanic pigs feet . . . :face: [/QUOTE]
