How about the miss saying Of names
Next time Your in yer local pub and the barmaid is working.
Nip outside and call the pub and When she answers the phone
Ask to speak to " a mike hunt",who will be sat in the tap room or Public bar
Somewhere .
"Phone call for mike hunt,PHONE call for MIKE HUNT"
sit back and enjoy

I remember someone pulling a varient of that on a young female trainee at work many moons ago. It resulted in her yelling out "has anyone seen Mike Hunt" across a crowded tea bar. Everyone was in hysterics apart from the poor lass whose face went redder than a ripe tomato. It would have probably ended up in a huge sexual harassment case nowadays.
That was in the days when trainees were still sent on errands for tins of elbow grease and buckets of compressed air.

Ian Snodin wrongly pronounced on many occasion Snowden.

Oh, lads and lasses. Look what I've found. Possibly the entire reason why God invented the human race was just so it could eventually write THIS book to make him titter when he'd had a cack day.
