bacicat is not impressed from the look of it!
Mine is pretty straightforward, adapted from the infamous and mysterious El Barto.
I'm Shane, so elshano it is!
Sorry if this thread seems a bit dumb, but there is something I need to get off my chest. Only a little thing – not earth****tering by any means…
My user name is BACICAT– yes, a bit odd, but for those that don’t know me personally, it keeps things anonymous on various forums I lurk about on.
Just for clarification – it is pronounced BAA-CHEE-CAT
Baci– as in the Chocolate.
And cat – as in… a cat. More specifically –this cat.
Who was a Chocolate Point Burmese – hence his name Baci. He was my all-time favourite cat, and died ayear or so ago. He was alive and well when I started using his name, but it has since become a bit of a memorial for him.
As I said – a bit dumb I know, but that’s the way it is. Maybe I should use an easier to understand name, but nothing is easy about me. (take that how you want to)
I would appreciate it if I don’t get any more babicats or bilbos or similar ifyou please and I’ll try to get your names right.
If anyone else experiences the same thing with their usernames, by all means post a clarification here.
Cheers–Bacicat (Gav).

Hey man my wife is a qualified cat judge...don't laugh she's judged all over the world. For the sake of accuracy, there aren't any pointed Burmese, it's just called a Chocolate Burmese and they certainly are top cats with a great temperament, we've had a few....Who was a Chocolate Point Burmese...
Not at all, I've known some truly outstanding cats over the years. You can tell when an animal has a gentle soul. You are lucky to have met one. It's not just people we 'connect' with.....As I said – a bit dumb I know....
As a bit of a laugh, my wife had to judge in Brisbane some time ago and she was on the flight back with a fellow cat judge when the lady next to them asked if they were judges. She ended up telling them that she was a teddy bear judge on her way back from a show as well. A teddy bear judge? So there was a whole row of seats for people being flown Sydney to Brisbane to give ribbons to cats and teddy bears. It's a strange world. My wife has to judge in Auckland next weekend.
My name is not so hard. My last name starts with 'H' and I kept adding z's until Hotmail would accept it
Sorry Bacicat, just looked and I am guilty

Thanks for the kind words Mike, there are a lot of people who don't understand this. Most people seem to think blokes connect with dogs more - and they are probably right, but I love my cats. (I won't make any gratuitous jokes at this point....)
I think your wife will spot that Baci was no show cat, he had good blood lines, but not quite up to scratch. Phantom - our big Blue would have been a better contender, but doesn't have the same character.

Similar for me. Sheerluck, not sheer luck. One word not two.
The reason? My surname is Holmes, so surprisingly enough my nickname my whole life has been Sherlock. Original, huh? Yes, Sherlock Holmes was my grandfather, yes I know where Dr Watson is, let's get all the crappy jokes out in the open now.
However, a friend at school had a very broad Liverpudlian accent (look it up on YouTube if you've never heard one before) always pronounced Sherlock as Sheerluck. And I have used that as a user name ever since.
Cats eh? Yeah, I'm fond of cats too, here are our two:
That's the 5yo female Tansy trying my sandals on for size and the 15yo male Oscar keeping an eye on things.
Username: cos I have a habit of making bad puns and I thought it was better than RR uted
So, Gav, you not got that structural engineering degree yet?
