[Nicos]

Mine is first letter of my real name and date of birth.

Born 1922 Jay????oh my…you’re nearly as young as Rary!


Well…someone had to say it!

[Nicos]

This is so interesting - thanks to everyone for joining in

PS you can tell I was up too early at the a*rse crack of dawn this morning - I actually needed to click on your link Mark Rand to understand the reference

I had to click on it too….had no idea! The things you learn on the Vine eh?

[Florence Fennel]

A bit like Nosmo King, then?

Albert Ross

I can't remember why, I think it just seemed appropriate - and cute!

[rary]

I am not going to make a comment about that Nicos. Actually if I hadn't went to the effort and expending the energy of printing the first paragraph, I would just have ignored it😒, anyway I think Jay is just a young lassie

rary Thank you at least someone has manners!

You are welcome Jay, I was told always be mannerly to your elders, that's why I am always nice to Nicos, but you reach an age where you should set examples to the young, to which you of course, fit into that category

[Babru]

My dad's nickname for me when I was small was Babru, and I use it for lots of things. He called me after the little boy Ba-Bru on the Irn Bru bottle at the time, if anyone remembers that. I wasn't a small boy, but my name is Barbara.
