Fed up with my name!

[Hooly]

Bored & depressed as we were on the way back from Bostonshire and driving past places with wonderful old footballers names like Deeping St Nicholas, Guthram Gowt, Surfleet Seas End, Gosberton Clough etc, I regaled the assembled Hooly Tours masses (i.e. mcnasty!) with my most boring story.  

At my last employers we had a driver who'd actually changed his name by deed poll to to Mr. N B'Stard, which I thought was odd enough, but found was even wierder that his first name was now Nasty!!!  

  Turned out that the now Nasty B'Stard was a champion kick boxer and everyone referred to him as a nasty b*st*rd so he changed his name.

Bored (again!) as we were driving past Judasbrough our very small minds started trawling through possible alternatives for our own name.  My surname is Irish, but I now find out after 45 years that by grandparents I'm sort of half Scottish (cheers for that news Dad!), it is invariable misspelt, mispronounced or I'm simply called "hooligan" which is patently incorrect for a shy, retiring & sober person as myself.

So after much thought & even more pick-n-mix I would henceforth like to be known as PIERS ST JOHN COWBIT B'STARD,  I thank you all.

So if you could change your name what would you be called?

Cheers
Piers

I could always revert back to my porn-star stage name of the 70's "Glint Thrust".
Not as posh as yours, but I am an Essex boy through and through !

The first few episodes (Called The Jerry Senfeld chronicles) were not that good.

The rest of it is absolute gold.

Favourite characters include Newman, the bubble boy and Kramers Lawyer.

I watched some of Curb Your Enthusiasm last night. What's the joke? I couldn't find it funny at all.

Haven't seen any episodes yet myself, but I have heard it's 'surreal'

I listened to the new quiz show called I know something you don't, it was crap. We never got to find out what the answers were.
