It's my name. Ha!

I tried thinking up a clever one but I'm not that imaginative. So just went with the simple one.

Makes sense to me.

Don't worry. Some of it is nice, but he lives in a not so nice bit.

I am from SOMERSET. Yesssss.

I'm only one village away from the Marsh myself, and surrounded by sheep on all sides, so I should keep quiet really.

My name is Joanie but all my friends call me Jones. So that just seemed the easiest.
Sorry, not very exciting...

It works though.

Well, it's a little better than 'Dumbass'...

Subject: Re: The origins.... Fri 24 Oct 2008, 13:51

True. Dumbass isn't the greastest nickname in the world.

When we got married I wanted to change my old username as well. As I'm Mrs W in real life and proudly Lancashire born, 'Mrs Woman' fitted the bill - as in the phrase, "Hey you, Mrs Woman!" which you hear a fair bit up here.

well, a frivilously embarrassing story:

in an awards ceremony at school(shitty attendance certificates etcetc) i was next up - waiting for my name - Leo Watkins - to be read out.

The old fart of a head teacher called out "Les Walkins" - a frightful spelling error. Deathly silence as I rose gingerly.

From day to day, my mates call me Les.

Or Uncle Nobhead, because I own a pair of cream slip-ons Smile
