Where does your forum name come from?
At the last meet at the Hawes Head some of us were joking that we all knew each other by our forum names and not our real ones. It would be interesting (if a little obvious in some cases!) to find out where our forum name comes from/stands for.
I will start off Mine is of the obvious nature..... It is the name of our boat. Astraeus...was the father of the greek gods of the four winds. Mythology has it that he was a lazily *** who got his sons to do all the work! (My dad reckons this has been reversed in our case! Cheek!) Explain yours...if you can???  |

Mine is boringly simple - surname backwards. Did think, in view of christian name, of something like "Hot Rod" but was concerned that may give the wrong impression

Perhaps but 2007!

You are correct but that thread was started in 2007! Anyway it was something I was thinking about after our Scottish mini meet. Of course , delighted to read about folks from elsewhere. Some quite logical choices mentioned...and some dubious ones avoided ..eh hot Rod? Chris |
