To get a picture in my head of MNters from their nickname....

[LoveBeingAMummy]

....and then sometimes be very surprised by their comments?

my name is the title of a Nick Drake song, then someone told me the song was about suicide, which I thought a bit miz, so I added 'star' to the end to jolly it up a bit.

black eyed dog

Obviously, in reality I am all squidgy and squelchy. A bit like him

this thread has prompted me to think of a name change....present one too boring I think!

Scottishmummy, I have two pairs of sandals, one of which my daughter won't allow me to wear. I do not have any cords or indeed elbow patches. I do have some Fair Trade teabags somewhere but I do not drink them. I did have my hair plaited once on an Antiguan beach, but not by a wimmin's co-operative.

I suppose you wear tartan underwear and only take your cagoule off when you have a (cold water) bath??

ScottishMummy what's the link about?

Dare I ask what my name conjours up ...??

Typical, off i go for the night and come back in the morning and my thread has got loads onit, sorry to those who asked me what you look like and thanks to those of you who put us right with an actual picture.

well how about my nickname...
I think my name just serves to remind me that I should be more assertive and leo the lioness sounds more cool than leo the kitten

what about me then?

a bit like nigella lawson with a nice big glass of red in front of you...

giantkatestacks - is that me you are talking about lol

yep...there also may be a chaise longue and a languid air involved...

Do you know what giantkate - I will take that as a huge compliment, because I love Nigella (although am so nothing like her) and cooking/baking is my passion.

mine was my brothers when he was at school. dont know why i picked it

or it could be because being with me gives people indgestion

name says it all really

Mine is from the Batman cartoon series, I watched as a kid, always thought Harley Quin was cool

'...or something very rude that I would never do.... '
Lovebeingamummy - LOL!

My nickname is very dull, just a few letters out of my name. I wish I'd bothered to think of a better one, I love all the literary ones and the funny ones.

Pamelat always makes me think of Italian milk.

What a fab thread! Do me do me.

I always imagined Intergalacticwalrus to be a cute tusky thing. Then I met her and she made me do unspeakable things round the back of the Dog n Duck, and i have never been the same since

I would be thinking more of a Judoon from Doctor Who...Or Jabba's guards...
