[QUOTE="sillydoll, post: 27811, member: 8"] Forum names always fascinate me and make me wonder about the person behind the name. [b] "FranksWildYears"[/b] is intriguing. Are you a young man who is taking time out from studying to have a wild time? Or have you given up the corporate world to bum around Europe? Are you an old man who has retired and is only now having a wild time? If your name is Jeff, why is your forum name Frank? [b]Sagalout[/b]: No need to wonder - this from the Telegraph: More and more old people are becoming problem drinkers, according to the Scottish psychiatrist Dr Peter Rice. He wants us to take this phenomenon seriously. Unfortunately, he has come up with such a glorious name for these boozy pensioners - "Saga louts" - that it is almost impossible to keep a straight face. Saga louts congregate in gangs, sometimes disguised as "wine clubs". The men, in particular, adopt a dress code as inflexible as those of their grandchildren: blazer with gold buttons, cravat, pocket handkerchief folded just so. And they have their own lingo: "What's your poison?", "Don't mind if I do", etc. But they present no threat to public safety - unless, that is, you find yourself trapped in one of their gatherings, in which case you face the very real danger of being bored to death by a golfing anecdote." [b]RuralVic[/b]: Are you a rural vicar? A member of the Old Vic - or similar in a rural area? [b]Falcon269:[/b] Why 269? Falcon is a great name - were you born in Feb '69? [b]Redkite[/b]: Oooh... this one fires the imagination! Its a magnificent bird of prey but it always makes me think of those wonderful, spiritual, Indian mantras. [b]Omar504[/b]: Exotic - Omar Sharif, Omar Khayyam .. could be a radio station! [b]MeramidLilli[/b]: Just has to be a gentle, kind soul behind that name! [b]Crackmrmac[/b]: Crack Mr Mac?? Why? His name is Brian. What does the name mean? [b]Aussieredhat[/b]: What fun! An Aussie in a red hat! (Mine is really boring - no mystery there. My name is Silvia. Most people call me Sil or Silly and my husband calls me Sil or Silly, or doll or Silly-doll. Seemed obvious for an email address.) [/QUOTE]
