Thank you Mike.. I  always have a chuckle  when I   see the funny names people have.

Such as Albert Hall.

Quite true, but Scouseboy did start the thread so is probably entitled to take it off in new directions (as is his habit  )

Quite often the threads go off on a tangent, it happens a lot. It's all good fun. I like the change of direction in this one! I like the way Scouseboy thinks!

My tangent now. Quite often I make up amusing names and then look them up on ancestry, there are dozens. Here is a clean one Mary Elizabeth Grate = M.E Grate, she did exist.
