    I had fun at a party once with a young Mariella Frostrup lookalike called 'LOVEDAY CUMMINGS'. I shite ye not! I got her to show me her credit card as the name seemed quite preposterous at the time

    It made me laugh when Millwall signed Uwe Fuchs (pronounced Oovay Fooks according to the newsreaders at the time). And then a few years ago I might a German guy with the same first name who pronounced it "Oovuh", which just makes the whole thing even funnier.

    There are plenty in Thailand:

    My girlfriend's nephew's name is Fuk, my bank manager is called Terdsak, I have met a girl called Tittiporn, though I have not used the Pornstar laundry in Patong.

    In the UK I knew an Albert Bridge, a Les Rock (everybody Les Rock) and a Nick Fairy. Chicago Addick may know these three as well.

    There's actually a town here in France called Condom. The French do not use our definition of the word.

    In the town where I live I visited the creche to see about enrolling our 6 month old son.
    I was looking down the list of names and there I saw none other than Axel Rose.
    I ask myself if the parents realise.

    Joe's brother is called Tom. Tom would be about 23 now I think and from the Orpington/Cray area.
