Rory was clearly referring to chocolate Fabergé eggs, when he made his "Humpty Dumpty" jibe at Russell, unless you are also trying to claim that "Humpty Dumpty" is a dietitian.

http://www.languageofluxury.com/lang...or-easter.html
Most, if not all, would not be aware of chocolate Faberge eggs, and most, if not all, would associate Faberge eggs with porcelain, as shuddup and others clearly highlight. But you knew that, didn't you? I can't speak for Rory and wouldn't presume to do so, not being a source close to him as it were.

"When we first started our blog, we found out about Sweet Brazil. We wrote a post about Paula and the fun of reaching out accross the continent to make a friend.

"Here is an excerpt detailing Paula's story,

Sweet Brazil reproduces Faberge eggs at Easter time in chocolate, of course. The detail work is exquisite. The founder of the company is Paula de Lima Azevedo. Her background was public relations. As a joke 21 years ago, she decided to sculpt Easter eggs at home. The word got out and the demand grew. She rented a small house and went into business. To quote Paula, “I discovered chocolate as a material to express my art. After that, I never stopped!” She hopes to have a store in New York, one day soon.

Check out Paula's website as her imagination and creativity is unbounded! Enjoy!"

So not actual 'Faberge' eggs at all really. Paula started in PR and does not work for Faberge as far as the info on the link is concerned.

As for Humpty Dumpty, he was a philosopher, thus:

"When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."

Terry I'm a Russell fan, but did you really need to create another thread referring to his feet?

If you like him so much, why haven't you joined us on his Appreciation Thread?

So am I a fan, and Terry is not doing him any favours. Do you really think he/she likes all these people he claims to?

Last year he littered the forum with posts about "Wonderful Widdy."

I've come to the conclusion he's a WUM.

I don't think Terry does appreciation threads that aren't his own. One he started was moved upstairs, and instead of continuing to post in it, he started another one here. You could almost think that he's looking for dissenting opinions by having these threads in the main forum.

Rory's "Humpty Dumpty" jibe to Russell was cruel and unnecessary, it must of been soul destroying for dear Russell to have to listen to Rory poking fun at him after having lost 10 stone in weight, totally uncalled for.

Reasonable people associate "Humpty Dumpty" with the nursery rhyme character.

Seriously not liking Rory saying "If furbisher was Humpty Dumpty" to poor dear Russell on ITT , no wonder we don't see Rory on TV anymore, he is not funny.

OK. I think we've determined what 'Faberge' can mean but what's a 'Furbisher'?

I think what you are trying to say is 'Fabergé'

Reasonable people eh. Well, that's me told. Or perhaps not. Humpty Dumpty may be associated with the nursery rhyme character, especially by children, but I think it is true to say that "we all", if not you'all, associate him very strongly too with Lewis Carroll's Alice.

You stick your nursery rhymes though if it makes you happy.

We all make mistakes in the heat of the moment and then correct them, this is what Rory has to do now and give Russell a heart felt apology for giving him the "Humpty Dumpty" jibe while the cameras were rolling on ITT.

If there is such a place it must be very well hidden.

The usual place to find (and start) appreciation threads is in the appreciation sub-forum.

Should that prove too difficult to discover, here is the Russell and Flavia appreciation thread. The link will take you to the current page. Enjoy!

Terry, you clearly know where the appreciation threads are, because you have already posted there today in your Jason and Kristina one

Pah, it's all a conspiracy theory from the BevilBC to hide things from Terry.

On a somewhat more serious note, I'd recommend that if people think a thread is in the wrong place, then they should use the Report button to report it to the moderators.

It is surprising however that Rory seems to have got off scott free with his jibe to Russell, people normally pick up on this sort of thing, its normally the judges that go for the personal insults every year.

I loved them Not only were they entertaining, but there was dancing there too without resorting to anyone getting dragged across the floor!

Great song that really suited them too
I do find it hard to believe that Russell is not given more credit for losing 10 stones in weight, not only does that have big health benefits it is a very hard thing to do and will take a great deal of pressure off his joints and will give his feet a lot less work to do.

Sorry, where did your incredibly hilarious reply about how that thread I linked to was very well hidden, without the name of Russell in the title and not enough adulation in the thread? I thought you didn't like people deleting any part of a reply, never mind changing it entirely?

Russell cannot possibly survive on dance ability and fair enough he can survive on a likable persona when it becomes a public vote issue

Me? cannot stand his mincing me me me personality

So he's a likeable personality who you can't stand.

Russell and Flavia on BBC Breakfast just now.

"Russell's surprisingly nimble on his tiny feet"

and then Russell displayed to the nation what we have all been waiting for,

'one of his dainty feet' and revealed after fevered speculation that he is in fact a dainty 71/2 !
