They're ducks in memory of two amazing members of this community, Ed and Ruthie.

no, no nothing wrong with not knowing .... don't expect everyone to know, especially if they never knew either Ed or ruthie in person! ... i only got to meet Quack Quack Jack this past spring, and have yet to meet ruthie's duck Quack Quack Jill in the flesh.

Here's some more info on Ed and the ducks ... Memories of Ed Smith

When some of the NY/NE people are online, they'll undoubtedly add more, since both were quite active in those clubs.

Ed and Ruthie were both amazingly bright-lights (and are sorely missed).

Quack Quack Jack and Quack Quack Jill have literally traveled the world and are a small way our community continues to honor the spirits of our missing friends.

This was when I met the 2 famous ducks when we went on the "Dealer Run"(a trip around all the MINI dealers in Norn Iron - though due to work I only managed the last 2) Quack Quack Jack and Jill were the Guests of Honour.
