But Alice, when you introduce yourself you should start singing "Living next door to Alice " see if they can resist joining in the naughty chorus.

I didn't know it had a naughty chorus.  ???

I wanted to call my second child if I had a girl but the father wouldn't agree because he'd been scared of the illustrations in the book.

I guess the big limousine pulling in and out of the drive has alternative interpretations  ;)

Mine's a childhood nickname.

Actually I was going to use Susieq because that was my log-in at work at one time and was one of the few that I always remembered. However, someone got there before me........................... :)

We were working in the Sudanese Red Sea (as scuba diving guides) and my motorbike was (actually still is) a Pan European so when I had to come up with a username (for Ebay as it happens) Sudanpan sort of made sense.

That was 10 years ago but I liked it so tend to use it for most of the sites for which I need a username.

Not very imaginative but all I could think of when I registered, your mind goes blank at the time and ever since have thought of plenty of alternative more imaginative ones. We had just taken delivery of our first pigs to add to our smallholding and I was feeling mighty proud of them so thought what goes with piggy and of course Miss sprung to mind. OH often says I should have been Mrs Piggy.  :pig: :pig: :pig:

I'll let you guess!

I use my real name on the one other forum to which I contribute but that one is used by people who seem to take themselves pretty seriously so is exceedingly PC and boring. But I'm not sure that it is so easy to identify that many TAS participants, bangbang?

In the world of jobs and networking employers routinely search the web to dig for dirt on people. Incautious and outrageous remarks stay on the web for ever apparently so there's every reason not to make busybodies lives any easier.

Entertaining chat about ones neighbours wouldn't happen if there was the remotest chance that they'd find out.  Maybe that's a south of England thing but we try to be on good terms with the tight-fisted pig-ignorant environmentally unaware flash gits next door.
Being certain just means you haven't got all the facts

I was called Louisey Squeasy Japanesey as an affectionated nickname as a child. 

Two of my uncles indeed still refer to me as squeeze.  I set up a business so Squeasy was the obvious choice.
