Why did you choose the UserName you have on here?

[BigSwede]

I am from Sweden. And I wish I was bigger.

[gunslinger]

I chose Gunslinger because I was reading the dark Tower series by Steven King and the main character is the gunslinger. At the moment I'm on the Right Stuff by Tom Wolfe, a brilliant book.

[Neil.C]

What a complex lot you are. :lol:

I just use my name, Neil.C on here and Neil (UK) on foreign based fora.

[walkerwek1958]

Mine's the same ID I use on eBay; being an honest soul I took the view that I didn`t need to hide behind different titles, although I don`t do much selling these days.

I was nicknamed 'wek' at school many years ago, my surname is Walker and I was born in 1958, hence 'walkerwek1958'.

The movement is a Seagull 3600 in Lepine form, Savonette would be with the seconds at 90 degrees to the winding crown. My wife has one in here daily watch with out a dial, she never knows what time it is but spends most of the day looking at it.

[Scottishtrunkmonkey]

Does your surname end 'unt' and your parents had a decent sense of humour?

[Andrzej]

2) I can't be arsed to think up anything.
3) I like simplicity.

So I use my name on all forums.

Yup

[Lostgear]

First time I signed up on a forum was to post about some climbing gear left up on a route on Stob Corie Nan Lochan. This was after me and my brother had a bit of an epic winter climb and needed to abb back down in a hurry in the dark. Hence registered as "Lostgear" and have been using it ever since.

ps It now sounds like I sell merchandise from a some TV Show :shock: , but I was there first I tell you :D

[Christian]

.

[964RS]

This sounds really nerdy, but about 10 years ago when I registered on my first forum, I was really into the Technics SL1210 turntable, hence my initials and 1210.

I'd love to change it but I can't without wiping out my post count here! :(

Pity I thought that was quite cool 8) 8)

even if a bit nerdy :lol:

'Chartman69'

I like to dabble in Stocks/shares as a Hobby ( as well as watches, cars ,Mcycles, flying etc..) and was given this name about 8 years ago on a couple of Finance Forums
( http://www.advfn.com & http://www.moneyam.com ) as I used to try and understand stock ' candlestick' charts and predict who was going up and who was going down :D The '69' well I will leave that for you to decide

Anyway my chart reading wasn't too hot :roll: , coupled with market volatility I am still only dabbling and dont yet have a pad in Monaco :(

My travel.....buy, buy, buy.........no sorry sell, sell, sell :wink: :wink:

[Mr Juggles]

"Tosh" was a nickname I picked up when I was 4 years old (a long & boring story) and although I tried to get rid it stayed with me all through school, Uni & into adult life. A while back I was introduced to a Japanese girl at a party who thought it was "Toshi" and refused to call me anything else. We ended up getting married and 14 years later I'm still known as Toshi to my wife, family, close friends and just about everyone who knows me :D

Nice......lovely bit of smile reading that, hope you have many more years...

[scoobie232]

[homerus]

I saw an episode of the Simpsons where homer and marge went to a romantic hotel for the weekend. Homer was a greek god named homercules - When it was time to decide a internet-nickname I referred to him as homerus, and I was too lazy to correct my mistake...

[Heat]

When I did my military service I was called Heat since they all had such problem spelling my last name Hietasaari, and because i mostly took care of the fireplace.
