I also do like the hypocrisy way quite a few 'regs' have names with Victorian/Squalor in though

SheikYerbouti · 25/07/2008 21:11

Yes, but as I do fuck all house work, I would be hypocritical

Mind you, I don;t really have a bouti to sheik either

I am a boot though, so I spose it's a bit true

SheikYerbouti · 25/07/2008 21:12

I dn;t want to change my name anyway.

I hadm a big name change at christmas, and now I feel happier as the Sheik

I think I am more bolshy with this name.

ScottishMummy · 25/07/2008 21:13

not sure i know how to name change anyhow?

VictorianSqualor · 25/07/2008 21:13

LOL scottishmummy, you aren't hypocritical! Just cod everyone who complains about the mummy names

SheikYerbouti · 25/07/2008 21:19

There was a Sheikmummy here once

I think she was a troll

She is my nemesis

I was most perturbed also to find that there is a poster called "walrus"

I always thought KerryMum was called Kerry (or had a dd called Kerry) until she mentioned she lived in Ireland

VeniVidiVickiQV · 25/07/2008 22:46

Why is it strange to be shortened to Veni?

ScottishMummy · 25/07/2008 22:47

ScottishMummy · 25/07/2008 23:02

good health. cheers

canofworms · 25/07/2008 23:03

I hate the subject of names

....because I have no imagination lol!!

I even had a nickname with "mummy" in it once before I realised that was a no-no

Where do you get your inspiration from?

nooka · 25/07/2008 23:04

Unless someone's name is offensive, I don't see why it is any business of anyone else's. Some names are clever, which is always nice, but otherwise who cares? It's a bit of a low blow to have a go at a nickname isn't it?

AsAMatterOfFisk · 25/07/2008 23:05

Right back atcha

zippitippitoes · 25/07/2008 23:07

think it is pedantic to do more than vvq

ScottishMummy · 25/07/2008 23:09

or pragmatic to cut and paste

AsAMatterOfFisk · 25/07/2008 23:12

do more than vvq? What on earth do you mean zippio?

I much prefer "fisk" to "cut and paste"
