What is the inspiration behind your user name.
Mine is my love of the sea tranquility lighthouses and of course no light house would be complete without a ghost

I saw a thread where someone referred to gym bunnies. I hate the gym, but love gin and bunnies.
I love some of the usernames on here and wish I was a bit more imaginative Grin

See, I always assumed yours was inspired by 'Round the Twist'. Mine is just a version of another username that I had on another website which I realised at the last minute I didn't want to be traceable on as I used it for work...!

I've seen your username on other threads OP and I thought it was a 'Round the Twist' reference! Mine is inspired by the best name EVER...

Because on the Chalk, you can't be a halfway decent witch without being well acquainted with the diseases of the the sheep - and their remedies!

I feel thoroughly ashamed of myself for not getting the reference in your username until I read that.

I used to live in Bermondsey and my DP lived in Mile End so I spent a lot of time going back between the two.

This thread has devastated me. OP, I always thought your username was a reference to Round the Twist. Utterly gutted it's not. Sad

My user name is self-describing, but dull. I'm trying to work on it (the name and the person who posts).

The reference to on the Chalk and the Sheep means it's from the late and much-missed Terry Pratchett.

DiseasesOfTheSheep - funny you should post - I was considering starting a thread titled "is it too soon to name our favorite?" (mine would be anything with Tiffany, the Wee Free Men or Granny W in it. Or Mort)
