Roll of Springers - oriental connection
Tug of Springers - nautical connection
Palm of Springers - average age of owner being 'advanced'
Harvest of Springers - sounds nice
Bounce of Springers - tenuous link
onion of springers - grasping at straws now....

As a lot of people have discovered, no, he doesn't. Epitome of Insomnia is Ghost. ::)
Title: Re: name for a group of springers?
Post by: grasshopper on August 01, 2008, 12:12:44 am: Ghost,
Seeing as you mentioned the Americans, has anyone suggested a 'Jerry' of Springers?

or more appropriately a 'Tide' of Springers ?
or even an 'Ebb' of Springers

tenuous link - a shock of springers
you know when you've just got one end to attach and it flies off - a 'Ping' of springers

Post by: fooman2008 on August 10, 2009, 04:38:37 pm: having watched springers play springer soccer I would suggest a cluster of springers as in a cluster muster (substitute muster for less polite but more seamanlike language) suggesting a herd of cats.
