Becoming a Butler is something you go to Butler Training Course for - and there, one of the things you learn is that Butlers are always called by their last name. One Butler's name was Mr Darling though, he had to change his nameTrue story, I knew a girl whose second name was Titt. She wanted to become a teacher. :eek:
After some thought, and a teaching practice, she changed her surname to Tait.
She's still teaching.

I know a Mike Hunt (say it to yourself), all I can say is the name has shaped him!0

As we are on awful names, I will add that I once taught a Julie Ceasar.
An ex-colleague claims she taught a Dwayne Pipe, but I refuse to believe that!:rotfl:0 -
That's quite high. Only 4.7 - 6.1 here.
Still, I'd rather be in a not-so-windy place, because a lot of it is destructive, and tiring too. We have very noticeable wind microclimates here, so some bits of the land stay pretty calm, while others are being battered.
5.1-6.5 hereWe made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.0 -
The one i remember was Shona Leg.0
