    Did you ever 'meet' the other immoral_angel?

    My username is the name of an Anglo Saxon Queen, the wife of King Raedwald of East Anglia, who was a feisty lady judging from what little we know of her.

    I wish I'd chosen something different now as it is so hard to spell and pronounce. I had no idea I was going to spend half my life on this site, or I would have given more thought to the choice of name.

    Seaxwyn, I've always wondered how your name was pronounced!

    Me too!

    I eventually looked up 'Anglo Saxon pronunciation' on wikipedia and found that the first bit is pronounced as two syllables - say-ax-win. So now we know!

  • My cat was called charlie.. big ginger thing.. followed me everywhere and slept on my feet in bed lol... watched his last moments as he died hence the angel bit... always thought people who were attached to their pets were a bit sad until he went...

    That's cheered you all up on a Friday afternoon hasn't it!
