Morning peeps- hope you are all ready for Christmas? ππ π
I was just reading the morning post on NRAS and as I read, the 'names' of people always make me smile- silly sense of humour I'm afraid πWhich leads to me asking...where did they originate from? Obviously we won't reveal any personal info ie- address details etc
I'll start: mine originates from my love of the character Moomin. I was lucky to have recently travelled to where he originated (Finland) and bought some prints which, in turn, lead to the Nordic colours in my loungeπ

I don't think mine needs much explanation Moomin but I look forward to the responses, some have had me baffled I admit. As I explained to Shadows-walker earlier due to my arches doing a runner & disappearing into a puff of smoke I can wear heels now, as long as they're a block heel for stability. So really nowadays not so much nomoreheels but canwearheels, though it doesn't have the same ring about it does it? I can wear wedges too now for the same reason so although I'd rather have my arches at least now they've gone I feel more feminine when getting poshed up. x
Mine's nerdy...(like me?). Helix is the Latin name for a snail, which is what I am now in terms of speed of gettting about. And a double helix is the structure of DNA, and having a wonky gene is what caused me to have this disease in the first place...
In our island shop (yes there's only one!) they often put the handle of my bag over my forearm so it doesn't hurt my hands. One day she turned to the bemused holidaymaker standing behind me and explained " she's got creaky wrists".
Like it .. I am 21 in my head, unfortunately the body tells a different story. Always live in hope....enjoy your Christmas and a better new year. Hugs X G
Well, I used to think fruit and nut were two of my five a day, hence the name. I've given up the habit but stuck with the name. Happy Christmas and a healthy New Year to you all.
I've been avoiding your post, but I do keep rereading it...It kind of makes me laugh.....Why?....Well if you knew me personally, you would know that I have a wicked sense of humour..I am known for my quick & funny comeback quips and sarcasm..All you have to do is just read some of my replies on this site......but to tell you the truth Suzannedale is my actual 1st and middle name. I mean I just froze like a deer in the headlights and I couldn't think of anything else.... lol
Mine is from an old TV add for Martini. The idea came after my divorce & I had to start a new life.
When asked about what I wanted to do I would reply that I would try - anything - anywhere - anytime - BUT not just with anyone. And that was where the line came from. Also my name is Gladys and for some reason people spell it wrong or dont believe me - so my reply is G at the front S at the end and LADY in the middle- just like me a lady thro & thro. Martinilady.
Mine is because I'm very unimaginative and so just thought of a book title which included my name - books having seen me through the "best of times and the worst of times!"
I just checked that quotation and it seems to be describing the world today. Some looking forward to change others despairing of it.
Wishing you all something to look forward to and a respite during Christmas particularly from the pain.
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way β in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."
mine is just my name shortened Cheryl after my sister named me a cherry - had rosy red checks after getting over yellow jaundice.
Mine is actually a customization of my very plain name - Carol. But even with Carol USA, someone else had it, hence the Caeryl. If my mother wouldn't get upset, I would actually consider changing my name to that name - haha
I chose my name because as a little girl I remembered the pretty tall pink flowers growing over wasteground and railway sidings.I found out they were called rosebaywillowherb,such a pretty name for a weed! Wishing you all a happy, peaceful Christmas.xx
Mines a mixture - Dee is my nickname and archer because up until recently I was an archer who competed at an international level until RA struck me down.
