A damsel in distress with an identity crisis ...

CurvyB that is quite normal, all mothers do that and it immediately transforms a 40 something to a 10 year old...

Not got too many names but did have a nickname at school and still when I bump into old friends I become that person again.

Good work Spud another original blog....

I do like the full title when a parent tries to give you a bollocking, I used to get annoyed by my parents trying to reprimand me when I'm middle aged. Now it just makes me laugh and they get annoyed and want to know why I'm laughing, just at the sheer ridiculousness of the situation. I suppose we never change in their eyes.

As for different names I've only ever been known by my Christian name other than over a few years whilst at school where a nickname stuck. That amuses me when I see people I used to go to school with and they call me by the nickname, it always makes me wonder if they ever knew my name.

I did have to remind a fellow member of staff the other day when a phone call came in that yes we did have a member of staff called Robert, he's the guy we all refer to as bob. I couldn't make my mind up whether he was playing dumb to take the piss.

As I have privileged info, I'm aware of the potato you refer to :-)

I tend to be called "Oh my God" a lot, but only when Dixon is with me.

DrP, "Ah but do you have the yellow waxy flesh of the potato?"
Well, let me tell you, after a good roasting ...... ;-)

Mickobath, or should I call you Michael? WELCOME! It's always nice to see a new face in the blogs. Don't let us miserable old bloggers put you off returning.
Just off to take a peek at your profile ;-)



Mac, were you having a glass or two and smoking your pipe last night?

I think you should stick to Mickobath. Mikeobath could be easily mistaken for psychopath and we've already got plenty of those. I kid you not ...




Hello Wingit. Another new face! Woohoo, even better when they're fellow heel lovers. I think you'll fit in just fine x. And please feel free to continue to ramble, the rest of us do.

I have a short first name which I'm quite content with.I used to get very annoyed as a kid when people lengthened it,to the point where I refused to answer to it.The " sweetie " versions made me sound like a softie and I wouldn't stand for that.The curious user ( nickname) I have,stems from my rugby-playing days when I KO'd an ugly prop with the cry of " Fetch that ! "
I was immediately dubbed Fetch by my team mates and it's sort of stuck ever since. Ah Well !

I'm willing to bet that you drove into that pothole deliberately so that men in various types of uniform would converge on the spot, giving you an opportunity to press your bosoms together appealingly in a gesture of helplessness.

I'm hoping that the outcome was satisfactory, but if not I guess you could always turn to that well-known App that seems to be popular with people such as my daughter, whereby all appealing members of the opposite sex within a stonesthrow from your GPS location are revealed. It's a bit like that thing for revealing life-forms that the crew of the USS Enterprise used to carry around with them.

Other than my forename which is an impossible to shorten name the only other i have been called lately is

"Life Sucking Bitch"

Admittedly it was after a year & half battle to get my soon to be EX husband to agree to a divorce.
HMmm knowing that it wasn't with reference to financial matter as i chose to walk away with nothing and start anew, i can only assume it was said as i won't be sucking the life from His certain pleasurable area any longer lol

Skebbie: are you and your evil twin "Dixon" trying to start up
a new religious sect "Oh my God" the:
"Brotherhoodsisterhood of Dixon" lol ;-)

I'm the Imperial Wizard and Dixon is the Totem Pole :-)

BTW there *are* actually alternative ways of sorting marital splits, and if you can turn your back on the financial issues it leaves a far better taste in the mouth - as well as giving you the moral high ground.

See, who said blogs are useless?

In one day, my blog has reunited father and daughter, facilitated quality divorce counselling, allowed shoeholics to 'fess up and provided a platform to meet new friends.

I'm feeling rather flippin' proud of myself right now ;-)

Joe, "Not got too many names but did have a nickname at school and still when I bump into old friends I become that person again."


Go on ..... tell us.

Hay Rick !

Luv2.. you could change to that by deed poll.. just think of the possibilities!!
It would be a lovely ice breaker :-)

Even without your 'full' name, if you introduced yourself as 'Luv2', they would have a choice of replies..
"Luv2 what"?
"So do I"
"Great, that saves a few dates and confusion"
"Ahh. but do you also luv to..."?
"You do? I thought I'd have to buy you dinner first"
"Cum first? Well of course my dear"
"Let me cum first? What a nice change, none of my other lovers were so keen on it..." :)
"Shall we see if we luv2 do the same thing"?

As for changing to your full name legally, wow.. that's a whole new world of breaking the ice isn't it...

Yep, I'm prone to fantasies.

Skebbie: the view from up here on my "moral high ground" is amazing
and enjoying the lovely clean fresh taste in my mouth also ;-)

I do agree that there are alternatives but once they have been tried and exhausted sometime there is only one option left.x

Joe: as Luv2 says "Go on...tell us" ;-)

Having taken a break from the blogs in order to hang around the chat rooms, I'm back. Has anything changed? The answer, of course, is no. Luv2 still has the most original blogs. I still want to get my hands on curvy. Skebbie still holds the moral high ground. Now then; somewhere, in the the bleary, alcohol-dulled recesses of my mind, a phrase - "quality divorce counselling" - has registered. Quite apart from the fact that the said phrase is a contradiction in terms, counselling is free! What will become of all the divorce lawyers? i suppose, for a start, thay could advise MsGeil how to deal with inappropriate police comments. OMG - is that the time? I thought it was about 2 a.m. - I must have flaked out on the settee. Good nightgood morning everybody. Must sleep. Over and out.

This conversation about nicknames prompted memories about friends from my youth,who all acquired nicknames of one sort or another.The origin of these was often quite obscure and the mists of time have erased the memory of the reasons for them.
There was " Pranger " Lovelock, " Rocky" Small, "Tufty " Strachan, " Gobbo" Gilbert," Grinner " Lapham," Biffo" Baker, among many others.The one person who did not have a soubriquet at school was a fellow called Robert Sole.One of the Masters took great delight ,when Sole raised his hand to answer a question,in saying " Ah Sole !" whilst glaring at the form,daring us to laugh.

Skebbie, that phone app - it really works. Within 15 mins I was surrounded by police cars and breakdown service vans before they closed the lane so they could work on me .. erm, I mean my car.


Tom that's very kind of you. Nobody has ever said that Gertrude is a beautiful name before. Mwah x

Ronald, Sledge? Spill the beans ...



Badboy', it's always a pleasure to have you visit my blog. You keep us all in check. I'm behaving myself on this one; I haven't mentioned big willies once. My Mom would be sooo proud.



Slow4u, sounds like my kind of fantasy. Would you luv2 ...?



Fetch, I bet you laughed ah Sole. If you see Joe in the chatroom, can you tell home we're still waiting?

All this reminiscing about childhood nicknames it's got thinking back to childhood and they old gang. There was Ratty, Moose, Slug, Bear, Snake, I don't see them anymore they were a bunch of animals. Boom boom, the old ones are.....just old!

That's the Gerry we all know and love :-)

Can't imagine how anyone could be nicknamed Slug.

Curvy, MiFord.
Dial 3 for rapid assistance (lone females only)

15 mins for two police patrol cars and an AA van.
Now that's what I call service!!

Curvy: "Tinder" :-)

CurvyB: glad to hear , you were not tempted away, we want to keep you, even if it means we have to get the handcuffs out to make sure you stay ;-)x

Oo er, handcuffs. That reminds me of a time when ....

;-)

Luv2 cannot be compelled to give evidence against herself: unfortunately.

How about an app for stranded guy's, press the F tile and 15 mins later 2 police women turn up at your hotel room, that one would make top 10 on iTunes.
