Oh the weather outside is frightful
But our competition is so delightful
So if you want to play our game
Change your name, change your name, change your name

Festive greetings, folks.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year - our Christmas Name Change Competition! Time to get your box of festive puns down from the attic and be in with the chance to win a prize.

We’re after a Christmas-themed name change that is a play on your usual name. To enter, simply post on the thread under your new name, and tell us what your normal name is.

The competition will run until Friday 22nd December when we’ll pick a winner and make the announcement on the thread.

Cheers all! Xmas Grin

In the box where you see your username, type your new one. Thensave - you'll need to type your password to do this.

As far as I’m concerned the three wise men and their hairy hands can go back from whence they came. There’s lots of wise women on here.
