Outstanding Names

Love this. Hank Wangford.

[Statto]

Used to live round the corner from me, did Hank. Lovely man, used to be a doctor and counted members of The Who & The Stones among his patients. Last saw him play in the summer of 2023 when he coincidentally shared a bill with my favourite country act, Hellbound Glory. 

(Not his real name though, it's a stage name/alter ego).

Current President of the Philippines

[Lion_of_the_Midlands]

Bongbong is a nickname but it is tremendous. 

[Gus Mears]

[Lion_of_the_Midlands]

There are a lot of Butroids in that part of Lincolnshire Gustav. 

[Gus Mears]

Apologies for not being up on my Lincolnshire names which include both arse and steroids.

[Lion_of_the_Midlands]

Chock full of em round here. The Bumtest family from Horncastle, the Assgas family of Cowbit and the famous Gluteus-Nandrolones of Norton Disney to name just 3. 

Cowbit of course is pronounced Cubbit. I tell you this incase you happen to go there because if you say the name of the village wrong they know you are an outsider and will eat you.

Sorry to double bubble but it was the first round of the NFL draft last night and the Bears have taken the fabulously named Colston Loveland, which I believe is a gentleman's club outside Bristol. Also the Ravens took Malaki Starks, who obviously didn't get the memo as I'm sure he should be called Aleister Saints now.

Weird, Noel Dashwood used to live round the corner from me. Went to school and did karate lessons with him and his brother Leon, who's name I've only just realised is Noel spelt backwards.

Fantastically Bean is what he is known as, his actual name is Arthur de Millichamp Beanland.

It was, until it was renamed the Beacon Basement a few years back.
