[Dan]

I know we've done this before (http://www.accidentalsmallholder.net/forum/index.php?topic=22188.120) but it was a few years ago and we've got many new members who may not have seen it.

So, what's the story behind your username? Don't worry if you've told us before, I'll have forgotten by now anyway.

I'll go first, My name's Dan, and I have no imagination. 

[plumseverywhere]

My username reflects how I felt when we moved into our little smallholding.  When we viewed the place we knew there was an orchard but as the land was so over grown, no-one had been to it to find out what was growing (the house was practically abandoned for 3 years before we moved in).   I had visions of a lovely mixed fruit type orchard and dreamt of apples, plums, cherries.

No, 70 plum trees and 10 damsons.  The one fruit I never really bought when I was shopping 

[Thyme]

My username comes from my alterego

[stufe35]

My first name is stu    and FE35 is the model of the tractor I learned to drive on when I was eleven...it was 22 years old and knackered.   Now im 47 years old and knackered...I still own the FE35 it is now 58 years old and gleams like a shiny new pin after I did it up.....oh my goodness in 2003...12 years ago now !  (OK on reflection I guess its quite shiny almost like a new pin)

Heres a picture from a couple of weeks back...you can vote on shininess.......of the tractor not my head !

[Me]

Me? Even less imagination than Dan

[nutterly_uts]

I'm nutterly_uts (or versions of) in several places. Its a spoonerism of utterly nuts which was (and is) apt for several reasons 

[doganjo]

I'm very boring - dog is very obvious if you read any of my posts. an - is half of my real name; jo is half of my dear late husbands name - thus ...................   doganjo

I have been replied to as 'Doganjo'; 'Dog'; 'Anne'; 'Annie'; and 'Jo'

I don't mind any of them so long as you all understand I am a boring old wysiwyg 

[Buttermilk]

I had just bought a sheep called Buttermilk when I joined the forum.

[Rosemary]

I'm married to Dan and I have no imagination either 

[pharnorth]

Pha because I spent my career in drug R & D and have a place in Crete (not all that far from the land of the pharoahs) and North because I live on North farm. Although most of you are way north of me.

[Old Shep]

Used to be just Shep (cos my surname was Shepherd before I got married).  I noticed that there's a Shep 53 so changed mine to Old Shep to avoid confusion ( I remember listening to the Elvis song of that name with my Mum on our old radiogram - when we looked at each other we were both crying at the end!)

[Bionic]

Years ago I had a car accident and had several metal plates put into my legs (removed long ago) so everyone was calling me the bionic woman. Easy really 

[Backinwellies]

After 21 years teaching agriculture and in wellies daily , I was made redundant and spent 5 years indoors in a college teaching basic skills ....... now guess what  I'm 'back in wellies' on our small holding. 

[Fleecewife]

I'm certainly no housewife but I love all things fleecey.  Happily shortened to FW, and then there's Mr FW
