Re: User Names
 
Mine's because I've worked in the fitted kitchen business for 30-odd years, I still see old customers from many years ago, who can't remember my name, (Gerard), so they refer to me as 'the kitchen man'
The reason for the three capital letters is because they are the initials of the company I work for.

For any curious new floks:

Lanc - Grandpa Hall born in Ashton-Under-Lyne, Lancashire (1898), died in Accrington (!980)

York - Nana Hall (Woodhead), born in Bradford, Yorkshire (1906)

Yank - BEA, born in Rhode Island (New England) so my southern friends refer to me as a "yank."

Clever eh?

Just curious UKCowboy. What is the definition of a cowboy over there. Is it just the hat or do you also ride, rope, brand, spit, chew, etc? I've done all those things and wondered if any different in England?

Just thought, would this be an appropriate thread starter?

ShortStuff just sprang to mind when I was logging on for the 1st time.....I'm actually 6'6" so I thought it was a touch ironic too!
