The other less crucial bit of information is that I believe Phylis was her name for one of the acrs they owned.

(I've probably been on the forum too long!)

Acrs,  All Corroded and Rusting Sunny? ?

Ah, so therefore my chosen forum name should have been "bastard".

That wouldn't be a legitimate name.

He could abbreviate it to B'stard, as in late and great Alan B'stard MP.

I was considering the car I had at the time I registered on the forum and "bastard" was actually the least offensive name I could think of.

I think Phylis has a new car now, called "Neil2"

Ha ha.  Chapeau.

On a point of order though, older sports fans will remember there used to be a jockey called Malcolm Bastard so it's perfectly legitimate, if that happens to be your name..

It is said, though it might be an urban myth, that the iconic BBC commentator Peter O' Sullivan once remarked at the end of a race won by Mr Bastard on a horse trained by a woman called Pam Sly "That's another win for the Sly Bastard combination".

Yes. At the time of 'The New Statesman's height of popularity, one of my teaching colleagues was a tall, stooping, beaky man dubbed "Buzzard" by the boys. Of course, the staff took to referring to him as 'B'zard', with the emphasis on the last syllable, thereafter.

Ok but why do some members continue to refer to her as Phyllis?  I thought her proper name was Rachel.  It's all very confusing.

dilligaf?  

 

.................  just in case someone hasn't noticed, Phylis loves to draw attention to herself.   She must be wallowing in self-esteem when she checks on the progress of this topic.

I for one had never noticed that of her - she loves a good exchange of views, but she is not unique in that.

Could apply that approach to our own Mr Biz too.
