I know quite a few Twatts that live in Leicester ...    which one were you thinking of ? ....

Space and capital W is there for a reason ... Mr Watts. No way is there another larger than life character like the T Watts work with.

 

Come to think of it I once knew a K Nobbs, who was one of the security officers on the gate when I worked for Rediffusion Simulation. A character who really did live up to his name and could have walked out of one of the old Carry On films. On the shop floor there was a Billy Belli, a loud-mouthed Scouser.

Local rags always do a baby of the year thing, in the places I've lived (most of them dead rough) they're hysterical. One year I saw about 7 different spellings of Jayden (already barely a name), some of them with apostrophes in.

Did he have a van with his name on?

 

There was a blue van in Birstall with T Watts on the side that caused me endless amusement as a child.

Well I'll be b*ggered. It looks to me as though there is more than one T Watts. The fella I know used to be a teacher in Leicester. To have done that job for 25 years he must have the hide of a rhinoceros.

T Watts skip hire in Leicester was a thing wasn't it? Now rebranded to Watts I believe. 

 

I know someone at work called Richard Head. Makes me chuckle in an immature way whenever I see him.

Given the current focus on unfortunate names I thought you guys might appreciate learning that I work for a Mrs. Badcock and alongside a Ms. Gooch.  Do I still chuckle whenever I see their surnames printed on official documents?  I am only human.

Just read about a couple from Hull who named their 2 eldest children Jackdaniel and Tiamarie.

 

In the father’s words: 'I had no idea that the two names we chose were commonly associated with popular tipples when we picked them’. Utter BS.

My son used to go to school with a lad called Jack and his last name was Daniels.

An ex-GF of mine, who was a teacher, once taught a kid called Shara - pronounced Sarah.

 

The father was a retard. When he went to register the birth, he knew Sarah had an 'h' in it but wasn't sure where, so he just guessed (wrongly).
