Just a random thought, but as you are called Cheery Daff, why is your avatar a sunflower? 😏

Oh Pyxis this did make me chuckle! By rights your avatar should be a cylindrical box with a lid! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Touchée! 😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂 You lot! 😂😂

Pyxis, that is a good question! I joined an ancient (non MSE) forum about 17 years ago (!) - never been on such a thing before and the woman who joined just before me had a flower as her avatar, so I made mine a daffodil, as I happened to have a picture of one handy, and called myself some variation of Cheery Daff or something (can't even remember now). 

Joined MSE and used a similar name, but it was actually a picture of me for a long time (although so tiny you couldn't tell). Then MSE made us all rejoin and I decided I needed a new picture, and I had one of a sunflower 😂

So basically no reason, this has just been my name for so long that I don't even associate it with daffodils any more - and you lot call me Cheery anyway 😂

😁😁

It suits you, anyhow! 
And a sunflower is cheery isn't it? 

The blackbird is my favourite bird. I love its song, and its appearance.
I have had different blackbird avatars...For a couple of years, I changed them four times a year to suit the seasons. 
This one is really the Spring one, but I like it best of all, so will keep it all year.

I've some pictures of pyxides, but can't remember if I've ever used one as an avatar. I think I did once.

LOL - thanks for the compliment Pyxis - my sister usually labels it something more derogatory!
...which reminds me of something very funny that I'm sure all you ladies will appreciate...
My ex used to get frustrated when we argued - his biggest complaint - I need a dictionary and thesaurus just to understand what you are saying!🤣🤣🤣
...one of the numerous reasons he's the ex 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Is not understanding long words grounds for divorce, then? 😂😂

I don't know how long you've been here, but if it's yonks, you might remember a programme called The Good Old Days, which was a weekly variety show in the style of the old music hall tradition from the turn of the (19th) century.

There was a famous compère, Leonard Sachs, who would introduce each act with a verbose description filled with the most complicated and long-winded words, many of which I'd never heard before, accompanied by lots of flourishes of a gavel, and the audience would oooh! after each set of elaborate words.

And many moons ago  not having been on a forum before I came up with Tescodealqueen. I wasn't very good at getting deals and don't even shop there any more. Happy to be TDQ  guess that could be anything
