I suspect we all spend a fair bit of time wondering about one another's handles. Does ilovesooty live in a house full of Sooty puppets? How deep is her love? Etc

My current username is a song lyric.

'When the snows fall and the white winds blow the lone wolf dies, but the pack survives'.

Favourite quote from Game of Thrones. Not a very creative person, my old username was my first name with number 1 after it 😂 luckily its not a common name.

@GrapesAreMyJam I always say my jam because of Sal, I have met him (absolutely gorgeous irl)

Hotterthanahotthing · 11/06/2019 22:57

Mines the menopause when I find that I am not just gorgeous but permanently hot.🥵

Hecateh · 11/06/2019 23:10

Hecate is the Greek God of Crossroads who faces 3 ways; depicted as 'Maiden' 'Mother' 'Hag' (or 'Whore').

The name is often already used so added the 'H' to make it less likely that it had already gone.

I am always at a crossroads with decisions to be made.

I have also been, at times, at least 3 if not all 4 of the personas of Hecate.

I love all the Terry Pratchett inspired names on here. I have the full collection of his books. I now have a kindle and disposed of about 1000 books; the only ones I kept were the TO ones and my Psychology/Philosophy books

My nickname for old Claude off the tele - must have been watching strictly or researching possible fringe choices at the time...

SapphireSeptember · 11/06/2019 23:58

My birthstone and birth month, I also have a slight obsession with gemstone names (although I don't have any of my own. Sad ) I've used various combinations of gemstones and pretty words on other forums before. Smile

PinkGinFreak · 12/06/2019 00:05

I like gin
A lot

LurpakIsTheOnlyButter · 12/06/2019 00:10

Butter. Because when I was I kid we couldn't really afford proper butter but my mum would buy nothing less than lurpak. Now my husband calls me a champagne socialist and I guess I am and he is correct.

But I actually do care a lot about other people and I want to see them do well, so I don't think I'm a knob 😁

2strands · 12/06/2019 00:10

Mine is about the amount of hair I will have left at the rate it's falling out (not long given birth)

markingplace · 12/06/2019 00:22

Mine is self explanatory! 😁

OneHanded · 12/06/2019 00:24

I have a paralysed left hand 🖐 🙈 it’s my dominant left hand so everything feels so unnatural and I was posting for the first time on ask me anything amputee thread!

Mine is from a recently deleted thread. I wasn't the poster who said that they were going to name change to this one though.
