Why my name is...

[Guest MrsHills]

I chose my site name as I spent the majority of my life in UK as.......wait for it......

as a police officer! Get it now?

[Guest kerfumph]

I think Porky, Dirty or Fascist Bully Boy may have been more appropriate!:policeman:

[Diane]

..... Fascist Bully Boy .....

But she's a girl!!!! LOL - see I've finally worked it out :notworthy:

 

I chose mine because I got accused of "hiding behind a name" when I was CatWithClaws (which I used to be as I used to have long nails and be a bit.....ermmm... catty! - Which of course, i'm not now!!!)

[HEAPS GOOD !!!]

Well South Australia is HEAPS GOOD :notworthy:

[Guest needtogonow]

And I did "needtogonow" when I was back in the UK but now perhaps I should change mine to "now i am here"

[Guest kerfumph]

But she's a girl!!!! LOL - see I've finally worked it out :notworthy:

 

 

I did know that ( since yesterday!) but I didn't think it had quite the same 'ring' to it. I think it was a quote from 'The Young Ones'. Showing my age now!

 

Kerfumph is just random letters that sounds like a word.

[Diane]

'The Young Ones'. Showing my age now!.....

 

You're ok, I got a Young Ones Video from an Op Shop and my daughter and her mates think it's hilarious, so there's a whole new generation following now!

[Guest guest569]

I suppose i'll always be a Pom as i was born in the UK. When we first moved to Australia i was Passionate about my old country and a bit patriotic. Now after 5 years i'm definately not passionate about the old country so maybe its also time for a name change.

[Riponian]

My name is a bit dull really, used to live in a place called Ripon so just adapted it..

[Guest motlyman]

I used to be an MOT tester in the UK.

Some of my regulars would say "can you do us a motly" which led to "where,s the motlyman".

I should probably change it to Poolyman now!

 

Colin

[Guest lastboyscout]

My favourite film, and the mighty Aston Villas motto is `Prepared`, hence the name

[Guest Django]

Was my nickname in the UK since I was spied sitting on the steps of a caravan playing a guitar with an injured hand. :v_SPIN:

[Guest garlic--bread]

I'll let you all guess mine.....lol

[Guest if only]

I'll let you all guess mine.....lol

 

Peter Kay fan?

[Guest Scrappin' Julie]

It's been said that it's cos I like a fight...

 

but the "scrappin" refers to the art of Scrapbooking (definition: sticking bits of coloured paper to bits of coloured paper. A simplified summary courtesy of my friend's somewhat unimpressed husband! )

[Guest KP Nuts]

K = Kim

P = Peter

and Nuts = never been to Oz before we got here!!!!!!!

I live in Salisbury Heights but i'm not massive, i just thought it would be funny since everyone thinks the Salisbury suburbs are a dog hole - bit mafia-esque

Well mine seems a bit obvious as my name is Tony and I was a professional boxer for 10 years, hence Boxertony - God I am so clever lol

[Guest shed end col]

Spent most saturday afternoons in London watching Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Used to stand in the famous Shed End terrace,hence the name.

[Guest Guest75]

Soon as anyone hear my accent they know I'm from Yorkshire.

So a Tyke am I

 

Yeah,yeah, the other definition is small and mischievous;).

[Moosh]

I was Pommygirl on the other website and a friend on there nicknamed me Moosh so i decided to call myself that on this website.
