Serial’s missing from ‘Theme 277 - This Is Us’ !
Sj wrote: "Serial’s missing from ‘Theme 277 - This Is Us’ !"I think Helen has included Serial's real name, Steve.
Has she included Sock and Trumpet? What about Trumpfanboy?
Yeh, Serial is "Tim" too but I'll add the word serial (sock & trumpet don't show up on his username anymore for me, he's just plain old Serial). I'll put Rob on the list too 'cos he has returned to the forum since I added that theme - hi Rob, hope that's ok with you?
Have I missed anyone else?

I misnumbered and trying to highlight and copy/paste with a sleeping puppy on you isn't easy if someone could do the honours with the last 2? I typed all this with my left thumb!
Done. All hail The Left Thumb. ;-). Didn't notice the mis-numbering.
Thanks Helen. Couldn't think of anything from those on offer. There were 3 of us in hospital all using our middle names. That's when I was told the Sunday thing.
A popular practice among Labour prime ministers, Lez. Viz James Ramsay MacDonald, James Harold Wilson, Leonard James Callaghan and James Gordon Brown. Hmmm, there seems to be a theme here.
My parents always intended to use my middle name. They just thought Ann Lesley sounded more 'balanced'. Been the curse of my life!
My initials were deliberately chosen to spell out the month I was born in - Janu..... MAY. My sister chose to be born in March so they couldn't repeat the feat.
It has occurred to me, that in the five or so years i've been a part of this 'little' music group..i still don't know the real names for some of you actually are! What's yours Mr BN? And who is Kevin?
There was someone called Kevin who participated back on the old 'zon forums.....but briefly appeared over on here at the beginning 3 years ago...but i haven't seem him post anywhere since then...unless there's another Kevin here? Like i said...i still don't know who some of you are!
Brass Neck wrote: "My initials were deliberately chosen to spell out the month I was born in - Janu..... MAY. My sister chose to be born in March so they couldn't repeat the feat."I received a pound coin holder engraved with my initials from my aunt one birthday, only problem is my middle name is Owen and my last name is Browne. I never took it out of the house. :-(

Kevin is my name and KJS are my initials. On Amazon I did briefly use my full name. I think that was before your time though.
my full name is craig ulysses norman thompson - i love to initialize!

Speaking of initials back in t'day when ah were a teacher like I had a lovely bunch of Y11s who were high achievers, worked hard and got my sense of humour (toned down obvs) on the middle three days of the week. At the end of the Thursday lesson some of the lads would exit with a jovial, "See You Next Tuesday sir" to which I responded, quick as a flash, "Tuesday, Wednesday And Thursday"! It took 'em a little while to work it out. Oh how we larfed. I miss classes like them but they were definitely the exception.

"What's yours Mr BN?" - pint of bitter please.
Toppermost secret that is. If I told you I'd have to kill you Duke.
Ever tried asking folk, "Have you seen the/my shores?" When they ask "What shores?" you reply, "Pint of bitter please" or whatever your poison is. That'll 'ave 'em rollin' in t'aisles.

Ah okay....yes i think you're right. I was thinking of someone who went by the avatar Kevinthekitty. He used to appear on the old deals threads on zon...can't remember if he frequented the music forum or not.
I think that there was another Kevin on the old Amazon Music Forum at one point. If I remember correctly he didn't actually like much music?
Helen The Melon wrote: "I think that there was another Kevin on the old Amazon Music Forum at one point. If I remember correctly he didn't actually like much music?"Much like Tech, then?
Helen The Melon wrote: "I think that there was another Kevin on the old Amazon Music Forum at one point. If I remember correctly he didn't actually like much music?"He was extremely rude to me when I happened to nominate a song I like on the One Track thread.
He used to post a lot on the 'Deals' forum and was mostly unpleasant to everyone.
Well that wasn't the Kevin i were thinking of....Kevinthekitty was quite pleasant, so i remember. He was also quite fond of a saucer of Cravendale too, i think!
"Much like Tech, then?"ohyoubitch, gordon! there's a song i like somewhere, i'm sure there is. just don't ask me what it is!
Val wrote: "He was extremely rude to me when I happened to nominate a song I like on the One Track thread."Sounds about right, Val. I don't know why he frequented the music forum, he seemed to dislike almost everything. I think he had a particular hatred of Bryan Ferry?
Nor do I miss S.R. Tulip who would make a flying appearance every few months to tell us that there wasn't a skerrick of musical taste to be had in the lot of us, whereas he ........ There was definitely something wrong with that bloke!
N'er mind them as i'n't'ere, who does tha wish weren't 'ere but is?Reight, ah'll get me cooert.
dinnae boather wi' yur jaiket, jist dinnae bang the door shut oan yur wiy oot!
'arsh much? Watch tha dun't cut thissen wi' that tongue! If tha does ah'll put a tourniquet .......... arahnd thy neck.
c'moan then, big man, ah'll tramp up an' doon oan yur neck tae ah get fed up!
Wonder whatever happened to Littleoldmeses (I think that's what he called himself) and whether he got psychiatric help.
