Where does your profile name come from?

Well, it's real simple to work where my user name comes from when you meet me. It's all about my melon spread and the year i was born.
Gees i must of hurt my Mum.

OK, I'll bite - LR & 300 are not normally mentioned in the same sentence. "please explain"

I am very new to Rangies, although I did drive Landrovers (FFR) in the army for years.

Mine comes from my brothers mates (He lives in the USA) and I have also heard it used here in OZ. When I bought a Rangie, they asked why I would buy a car, that the queen uses to cart her corgie around in.

Hence Corgie Carrier.

In America, Corgi is spelt Corgie and I didn't check the spelling before I used it here.:(

Avatar is my first rangie, currently in pieces, being converted into a hybrid bush pig.:D

when I joined, got to the part about choosing a name, the first thing i thought of was the colour i was painting my series. thats it honest.

But with the car names:

I did have "Ol-Ute".. :) Fitted well as the 1955 107" Truck Cab sat next to Ol-Mate in the drive way at home. Yep - it just had to be Ol-Ute.

Next came "Shorty" ... purely because the little 80" was shorter than Ol-Mate. Seems that I had to remind myself of this fact as it had taken me ages to find an 80" that I could buy :D:D:D

Well,i will ad my bit as well,my wife actually needed a password for something many years ago,& as our surname is Barry,she came up with Scarry.
So when i signed up on here,couldnt think of anything,so thought i would use it again.

And no its not scaaaary,its scarry:D

I use stuckatswansea as a user name for Fishnet.com. as I really don't plan on leaving this place unless I'm in a box.
Cheers,
Anthony.
