Grand Designs - the child's name is Beaver???

[deaconblue]

WTF
Apologies to anyone who has a daughter called Beaver that I have offended...

dh was incensed at the beginning when they had a look around the fire gutted cottage and everyone wore hard hats apart from the baby - she seemed to be holding a Bob the Builder type hat but there was nothing on the unfortunately named child's head

Beaver has to be worse than Biba. Imagine all the mucky jokes you can make. Can't think of any name worse for a girl.
Actually Vag might be bad

If you had twins...

Beaver and Vagina???

I think Biba is a nice name

"They were talking about how structurally unsafe it was, with beams about to collapse etc and all three adults(and film crew no doubt) had their hard hats on but the woman had their tiny baby IN HER ARMS! "

Yes I thought that too - especially after I went to work last night and discovered a colleagues DP had a very lucky escape (thanks to his hard hat). A piece of the scaffolding he was taking down collapsed and hit him on the head, when he was found he was unconcious - but surrounded by scaffolding so at first they didn't know whether he'd fallen, or had been hit by falling stuff.

Thankfully he's ok apart from concussion and cuts and bruises. HOWEVER, apparently just seconds before the scaffolding fell he'd had an itch, and took his hard hat off long enough to scratch his head and them put it straight back on........if he hadn't put it back on the Dr.s reckon he could have been dead !

scampadoodle - its repeated tonight at 8 or 9 on More4.

I know they sold the London house eventually, just meant when the cottage burnt down at least they had somewhere to live. Daft of them not to be very careful about maintaining their chimney in a thatched cottage.

I don't mind Biba BUT it sounds like Beaver on tv. The kid on Location Location repeat on More 4 this eveing was called Biba too - guess what I heard her name as...

What about triplets: Beaver, Vagina and Fanjo???

i know someone called Candida Beavers!

Notanotter..... I went to primary school with a girl called Candida Beaver!!!

fantastic name. Perhaps there's a whole new thread in this? Candida, Vagina, Fanjo and their pet Pussy Beavers LOL

the moon - was she very posh!

Cannot recall if she was posh or not. It was only primary school. I just remember her odd name and that she was quite fat (unusual in the late sixties) I seem to think my mum referred to her as 'spoiled brat' occasionally

i dont think its her Themoon66 but odd ...two Candida beavers in the same towm

I've asked my mum if she remembers her. She says I'm wrong and her name wasn't Beaver. She says there is a large family of Beavers in that town, so perhaps your Candida married one of them.

Oh... and I would guess she would be about 42 or 43 now.
