Re: Online names.
My daughters' nick names are Bam and Boo, which makes Bamboo. When I opened a restaurant in Hua Hin, I named it Bamboo Grove. Bamboo is also my favourite plant.

Re: Online names.
Came to work one day on my motorbike, took off my helmet and my hair was sticking up. A mickey-taking colleague called me 'plume head'. When considering a user name, 'Mr Plume' didn't work for me, so truncated to 'MrPlum'.
Obvious really.

RICHARD OF LOXLEY
It’s none of my business what people say and think of me. I am what I am and do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. It makes life so much easier.

Re: Online names.
Mr.VS picked Parahandy because he's a Scot and likes the character. I joined a short while afterwards and chose Parahandy's boat - Vital Spark. Yeh, I chuff along sometimes, and occasionally annoy the hell out of him, but at the end of the day he couldn't survive without me... ![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

Re: Online names.
Yes, mine is just my name and the only reason it's in capitals is because I'd never used a forum before and in my work we always enter data that way.

Re: Online names.
I think mine must be pretty self explanatory. Born & Bred but not lived there for a long time.

And so you should be blushing right to the roots of what hair you've got left, "Mr. Can?"
