    Probably a good thing it wasn't, as we'd still have a go at you for not spelling "knight" correctly

    Well my football hero when I was a kid was Graham "Studley" Cornes, but I just tell people it is my incredible and amazing prowess with the opposite sex, no one believes me can't work out why.

    SilentC,

    Familiar as I am with Kublai Khan's pleasure dome, and the River Alph, I had never associated them with your nick before. I had always assumed that it had a much more mundane etymology Thanks for putting the record straight

    errrrrm,

    well swmbo lovingly says I have a face like one.......
    me? I prefer the cocktail aptly named for its looks with something green like midori and a splash of something red like I dunno and all sitting on something slimy like baileys......Tastes alright.
    I guess it's better than the cocktail named "the one that didnt flush"......

    Mine is made up from my nickname and also because I always have been had timber around for as long as I can remember.

    DJ comes from sharing a house with another John and a girl and she got sick of 2 Johns answering her everytime she called out John. So she started calling me Deaf John as I am deaf and I said no bloody way, so she shortened it to DJ and now everyone calls me DJ except for my Mum & Dad.
    Cheers

    In time, out of deference to my skills, they began to refer to small units of measurements as "a smidge", and I soon became quite famous, having given my name to an actual unit of measurement.

    It wasn't long before the press began hounding me, and the Paparazzi were staking out my house waiting for that one shot. Life became terribly tiresome, so to regain my anonymity, I changed my name to biting, and have thus far, lived happily ever after.

    Midge, I'll teach you how to do searching one day.

    My nick was oringially given to me by my pommy friends; after I had lived in the Antipodes for a few years, they noticed my pronounced Australian accent, so they referred to me as "Our ocker". I protested vehemently that I had always spoken the Queen's English; but they wouldn't let it go, so I had to go with the flow and call myself ....

    Rocker.
