My Stepnan
Her initials before marraige were JAM. That's not to bad, but her name itself wasn't too good.

She was Jean Maclean!

The song was too easy when he was a referee in a college drinking game and made a controversial decision...

This is the god, honest truth
Twice this week, on the company database (Npower, if anyone's wondering), some's broguth up the electricity account for a "Mr Handjob" I've no idea if this is a real guy's name, or a company name, but we've been pissing ourselves anyway.

Plus there're a fair few S. Hussains (one whom lives in Sedgefield, Tony blairs backyard), and a couple of Saddi Husseins.

My Contribution
When I was at school, the slower-learners were very politely called 'Essential Skills', and had their lesson in 'E-Block', hence their rather affectionate nick-name of 'E-Blockers'.....as well as 'Biffs', 'The Mongs' and 'Joeys Friends' (as in Joey Deacon, of course).

Anyway, one of these poor saps was called Michael Jackson, and one of his classmates was called Elvis Smith!!!!!! You couldn't make it up.

We were the only bunch of kids in the history of education who actually looked forward to Parents Evenings, as young Elvis' parents would turn up - with Mr. Smith Senior in his trademark leather bomber jacket, tight denim jeans, and his jet-black dyed hair in an immaculate quiff!!! All this to hear about his sons tantrums, pant-wetting and vulgar 4-letter outbursts. And how he could nearly count to 7!

Oh...and while I remember, my Dad used to work down the mines with a bloke called Jerry Attrick.

My mum's maiden name was Shelley Boddy. Recently, she worked with a Hi Ho (I believe that's the spelling, I've only heard it said). She has also taught a Much Blessing and a Persistence.

I knew a girl called Bonnie Sunshine. And a guy called Danny Kerr - his brother was Wayne. Cruel parents.

At the moment I'm working with a Barkha, a Dandan and a Yuan Yuan.

I had a biology teacher at school called Mrs. Marks
who decided to add the name of her husband to her own and became "Mrs Brown Marks" (henceforth to be forever after known by the school kids as "Mrs Skids"). A friend of mine, a teacher, used to teach a kid with another humorous double-barrelled surname - Lee Cox-Hooker.. :)
And this is the same teacher who had a girlfriend called Emma Dale
