No, that's what I thought, but suggested just in case anyone could be bothered:).

A few people know my real ID - it only takes one careless post...
My best friends (very psycho) ex managed to trace her through Facebook (and she had changed her name) all thanks to one careless post from another friend... not pleasant, I can tell you!April Grocery Challenge £81/£1200 -
