I used to live in Longlevens!!

Worked at Whitbread Beer Co (before they sold it!) and sidelined at The Royal Oak in Hucclecote!!!

I have some fond memories of Gloucester.  ;D

Quote from: Emsworthy on Friday 07 January 05 22:07 GMT (UK)
It's a nickname I gained a few years ago at work...can never remember the name of the book (letting myself down there! ::) ) but I was 'Lord Emsworth' for a while and it eventually became Emsworthy. :)

Emma ;)

Lord Emsworth was the proud owner of "The Empress Of Blandings"
(P.G. Woodhouse)
Chose my nickname as two of the letters are my initials and the other one isn't. ::)

Ah yes wasn't that the prize pig?  ;D
Mine is a bit too obvious, but I had no idea what to expect when I registered.  Too, too boring of me!  I'd have preferred something more interesting ... like Fred.

Mine was my nickname that I used to use when I used to spend a lot of time on the Buffy chat room in Yahoo (yes I'm a massive fan).

It was give to me by my godson Jamie after I dyed my hair red and it was cut short (its now dark purple/black and longer). The 4873 is part of my old e-mail address because there were so may Willows on the site and it was the easiest way to remember it but it mainly got cut down to Will48 for ease

By the way AmyK said I was the first person she had met off this site who actually looked like their nickname

I am tall but no I am not in the least bit 'willowy' lol  ;D
