[jump]

I just lol at his first day at Secondary School and work

Can imagine the interviewer for his first job So your name is Cockydodo ? erm... Well thanks, we will let you know if we want you stood at the sales stand with that on your name badge

[rachbon]

Nah it'll be shortned to Dodo or something that works, you woldn't call Rebecca Rebecca, you'd call her Becky.

[RABun]

anyway everyones name gets messed around with -

my surname is Howard so i got called Howard the Duck or Howard the Coward

People called my brother Neil Neil Orange Peel so why would anyone called Apple or Larmer or Buddy Bear get the piss taken anymore than anyone else?

I got kicked out of Upper School because the only way to not get bullied was to be as badly behaved as possible to entertain the other kids. Obviously that was stupid.

[Pogues Mcgogues]

i was bullied in p1, but then the twat left so i was able to come out my shell. think i was popular in primary, then i was inbetween at high school.

I got bullied by my teacher in P1. Didn't realise it then but looking back if my memory is right (which obviously I may only be remembering certain bits or that) then I def got bullied by her.

I got on with everybody at school. I honestly can't think of a single person I didn't get on with, or at least wasn't able to talk to.

That's nothing. I apparently bullied Oaf on an Internet message board earlier this year, and he's a thirty eight year old man.

Had our little one been a boy, he'd have been called Buckley.

I've met a Mike Hunt before, jolly nice bloke.

[ampersand]

ooh, never heard of buckley as a first name before. it is quite nice but then folk would just call him buck. and that would be shit.

[eFestivals]

Had our little one been a boy, he'd have been called Buckley.

Had my son been a girl, she'd have been called Fenchurch.

Some of you will - I guess - work that one out.

[saratink]

Funnily enough, i`ve just returned from town..and i thought I pop, incognito to the bus station to see The Boy J getting off etc.

As all the kids alighted, i was giving em the once over etc..how they looked. There were a couple in particulary who had I`m Prime Material For Bullying wrote all over em.

Jordan has long wavy blonde hair and had been shittin himself starting big school in case he would be ripped to shreds.

We gave him the option of just going with the crowd and getting his lovely hair cut off so he would look like the rest.

He finally decided to just have a trim. And tbh--a trim it was..I could hardly tell the difference.

And? 2 weeks in? He`s telling us that they love his hair...esp the boys! (wheres Mr Phil?).

I would be quite suprised if any of the kids were bullied tbh. It is about confidence as has been said..and something tells me they wont be short on that trait.

Another thing that struck me today was dancing.

We were made to do dancing. Country Dancing. I f**kin hated it---all the boys hated it...except Geoffrey Hunton. Theres always a Geoffrey Hunton isnt there? Turned out to be a vicar. Mother always wore hats she did.

But of course, nowadays dancing and the arts are in vogue aren`t they. With all these X Factoring and Strictly etc.

How things change eh.

Annabelle... thats not a Prime Ministers name really is it.

den

[eFestivals]

The queues in the booking hall can get very long?

Sort of, but not quite the way you're probably thinking.

I thought you'd have been the one to get it actually. I'm quite surprised that you haven't.

[oafc0000]

Annabelle... thats not a Prime Ministers name really is it.

[brighteyes]

I know someone called Hugh Cumber. Unbelievable.

I want a boy called Cedric and a girl called Emma. Nothing to do with Harry Potter, by the way, I just like the names.

[gratedenini]

Oh no, I have made a terrible mistake

[oafc0000]

Well Mr Oaf, by using your logic, between us, we`ve got a Prime Minister and a pair of twats!

But,

"Pray Ladies and Gentleman please stand for the Prime Minister, Annabelle Oaf"

or

"Please welcome on stage the sensational guitarist brothers Larmer Twat & Hendrix Twat"

I`m really not quite sure which way this might go. Lets see in a few decades.
