Had a Denton Ucervicykz once, but everyone thought I was a Red.

Changed to Sidney Arbour, but the Yanks didn't figure that I was kidding. Even had a James Bond, [and drunk copious Martini at Flag]. I think I lost the tag in a game of craps.

Didn't the Dutch Heli Team have:

Good thread. It's about time someone pointed out that 2 initials and a convoluted (sp??) surname do not make a joke.

On a similar vein to other "unusual" names, I went to university with a bloke called Tam Paxton, and when I was driving up to Cranditz one morning the radio breakfast show had a competition to find the silliest name. It was won by some chap whose best friend was called Duane Pipe!!

Either there is one German with a sense of humour or Uwe W*nk*r really was an exchange officer!

(Edited because the original surname was blanked out by the 'system')

I know Willie Clamp well enough to know that he signs his name with an ie and also that he would never use such indelicate language as ' shagging a bull up the nostril'. The misquote was from, 'Women are OK, little boys are very nice but you can't beat the real thing; the left nostril of a bullock on a cold and frosty morning with his rough tongue licking at your balls. Willie does not claim an origional on this it was a common joke in the 60s with punch lines to suit the current activity such as - you can't beat the real thing; straining against the rudder pedals, asymetric in a Canberra. As he approaches his bus pass and even longer tea breaks next month Willie also tels me that he will take with him into his retirement many fond memories of all the entertaining people who have made the past 46 years such fun.
