Bungalow is brilliant!

There was a guy on Shoreham beach in the 70's 80's, apparently worked at Kings Manor . . . was known as moon-man . . . . not entirely sure why, I'm sure someone here knows.

Dave Hedgehog (The Young Ones).

Wasn't Dave Hedgehog from Bottom?

 

[hart's shirt]

Former Man City player Kiki Musampa ended up being called 'Chris'.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

We have a bloke at work that told us he was spoken to by the police when he was 15 for having sex with an underage girl. This was around the time when there was a big investigation going on in Australia due to the Pitcairn islands laws on the age of consent, if I recall they had just reduced it to 13. For the last decade or more he has only been referred to as Pitcairn.

Could have been worse.

A small person I knew of at uni was called Boil Wash.

He appeared once at school in a very silver overall apparently. Hence the nickname given to him by the year above me. They also wrote Moonman fckus dogs on the football pitch allegedly. They really didnt like him.

A long time ago I worked for a plastic widget manufacturer. One of the women on the factory floor was called Jane. When I was introduced to her, she asked me to call her Wookey.

Ever been on a trip to Wookey's Hole? Good reviews on Trip Advisor.

We had a girl at work we called Kronenbourg. 16 from the back, 64 from the front.

One that did the rounds a few years ago was called Wayne Bruce, who had the nickname ManBat

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Once worked on a large IT project for Customs & Excise. Customs officers would come on a month's secondment and test the system for errors. I was sort of in charge of them. One month we had this Scottish bloke, name of Jim if memory serves. Except that all of his HMCE colleagues called him Douglas. So I thought I'd better ask him if he preferred being called Jim or Douglas. Turns out his name WAS Jim. Customs sniffer dog handler who had really bonded with his dog, to the extent that became a family pet. So much so, that he took it along to the golf course one day. Whereupon it spotted a rabbit and, er, hared offinto the distance, never to be seen again. Whereupon Jim became known to one and all as Dugless

A mate of ours was known as jabber.
It stuck for years.
We were explaining to a new workmate how our nicknames were arrived at and he pipes up 'it's because I talk a lot'
We then explained to jabber, that we named him that because he was a diabetic.
He hadn't realised for about 6 years

Dave Hedgehog (The Young Ones).

Give me a Hedgehog and I'll show you! (Bottom BTW)

 

[The Maharajah of Sydney]

There's a guy I know who's nicknamed 'The Clock' due to the fact he's got one hand bigger than the other.

That's kind of what I heard. at least the silver suit bit.

I have a friend we all call Gusset. When I first met him I assumed it was because his name was Angus (Gus), to which his older friends said no, it's because it's a polite way to call him a ****.

His real name isn't Angus.

We still all call him Gusset.

 

[Is it PotG?]

+++++ PUBLIC APOLOGY +++++

It has been pointed out on more than one occasion that my false and ill thought out post earlier may have mislead people into believing that Dave Hedgehog was in The Young Ones.

This is not the case, and I offer an unreserved apology and regret any inconvenience caused.

I have written to Dave with a similar message.

 

[Munkfish]

I don't know if its a real one, but Id be disappointed if the Fulham players don't call their keeper Nips.

 

[el punal]

A girl who worked in our team was, let’s just say generous with her favours, acquired the name Miss Martini - as in “anytime, any place, anywhere.”

I knew a fella when I was in the Navy, whose nickname was Try.

He was a skinny little bloke, about 5’2” and 9 stones soaking wet, but he had one of the largest male appendages I have seen outside of porn films.

The Try stood for tripod.

A similar nickname was a guy called Brian the bollock, he had a strangulated hernia of the testicle and it was the size of my fist.
I did hear that he eventually had to have said testicle surgically removed, as he had not sought medical help when it was treatable cos he was scared of what it was.
