Due to the habit of shortening board names i.e. both myself and Porkie Pie get shortened to PP, and in order to avoid confusion (for me in the main, hence the knew name)

I am now going to be Dazed & Confused - in honour of Percy Plant and Led Zeppelin (for those who wonder, Roger Plant was nicknamed Percy, does anyone remember the film about the man who had a very special transplant?)

This new name has nothing to do with my mental state (yeah right!!) :-D :-D ;-) :-S

Well I tried to change to Daze & Confused and it would not let me have this name for some reason

So it is now DazedConfused

What a palaver :-P

AnninGlos - kept getting annoyed at remarks made to PP, thinking it was me, only to realise they were talking to Porkie Pie.

Spent a while thinking of a new board name and still did not notice that I could have become D & C!!!!

Now thinking of changing my picture to one of Robert 'percy' Plant...... mmmmm

Ooops sorry my mind wandered off on other things then..... ;-) ;-)

Makes mental note not to abbreviate David Cameron to DC otherwise you might think I was being rude about you and not him, DazedConfused :-)

You think you have problems, every time I see the letters 'RR' in a post I have to see if it's me or just a 'Request Review' comment ;-)
