change user name?

I have emailed this to the board but had no reply. I am so enthused with this site that I have told all my friends & rellys about it. However, I have put some revealing monetry info in some of my queries, & now I have realised that I can be identified by my user name. As I dont want my friends to know all my business I would like to change my name, but how do I do it? I understand the reasons for not making it easy to change, but I read somewhere on the site that you can make a special request and providing the panel are satified with the reason, will allow you to change, but nobody has replied to me yet. HELP

    I know this is probably very cheeky but I would like to change my username too. I used the first part of my email address and I'm finding it's too close to my email address for my own comfort! Can I do it please?

    And if you do let me do it can i have it changed to just "Claude"? Thanks

    In the middle of the night, aliens came and abducted my lovely daughter and replaced her with... a teenager whose jaw doesn't seem to work properly: she mumbles a lot! Sadly, they didn't put lots of £££ in my bank account :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Don't worry Claude,

    The aliens will bring her back in three or four years time and she'll be even lovelier than she was before.........unfortunately, by that time your bank account will probably be running on empty and your car will do an extra 5,000 miles a year (if my daughter is anything to go by)!
