    Nahh kid, your way off there lol.
    It was originally Acid Man (I changed it to Acido because it sounds like a Brazilian or Italian footballer!).
    And I came up with it after a hilarious night in a few Blackpool nightclubs, in the mid 90s. :D

    Worked in Cambridge from 1978 to 1983 in a Chemistry lab and the woman who looked after the lab glassware was a Cambridge United shareholder so we had a bit of footy banter. At the time I had quite bushy hair so she called me "The Barnsley Brush". "Brush" seemed a fitting username for this forum.

    Some people say I'm as daft as one.

    UptheColliers. As an ex-miner and the proper nickname of Barnsley F.C. very much appropriate I thought.

    Jack as in Jacques which was the name given to me in secondary school French lessons from Wombwell High school starting back in 1983 and Tatty as in Tati from the French film maker/actor. Very few people who have known me from way back then actually call me by me real name.

    Had often wondered if you had a YouTube channel, but then read it phonetically.

    I live in a dark hole for most of the time and am probably riddled with things you wouldn't want to know about.
