    Mine is purely my Nickname plus bfc.

    Often thought about contacting admin to knock off the bfc part, but never actually done it

    I used to be City Tyke when I first set this iteration of the BBS up as I lived and worked in The City of London but that didnt work when I moved back up north so I went with the nickname Ive had since school.

    I think Ive run this BBS for 20 years come next year. We really should have a meet up or something

    I spent absolutely ages trying different options but they had already been taken.
    So I was getting my next can out of the fridge (already having had quite a few) and thought sod it, that'll do...

    Yeah I think we had that one sussed mate, years ago lol.
    Hey it often gets asked, but I think its always interesting reading people's comments on their own, and other people's I'd names. :)

    For my own name it's obviously idiomatic and synonymous with our home crowd, but it's also a song by Machine Head and D and S match my initials.

    Your lucky you didn't pull out a can of Double Diamond beer lol.
    Aww that brings back memories for me though, as a lager fan..
    Stay sharp Harp, stay sharp to the bottom of the glass.
    And Hoffmeister, just follow the bear!.
    And Carling Black label (as it was called then), and Skol lol, and Fosters the amber nectar. :)

    My kids have had Nintendo DS but I am definitely more of a original Gameboy age.

    Never ever - horrible stuff.
    Always liked Harp - had a bit of bite about it, Morrisons had bottled in a few years back for a few months but now appears only sold in Ireland.
