My propensity for buying faulty goods continues.

And that’s how I got COVID.

Perhaps he should change his name to Errol.

^^ I used to be called “Stud” when I was a trainee tecnician.

A friend of mine's nickname was called "Dick B......" when at school. Never did find out the reason, although I did share a room with him regularly when in the Army Reserve.


He kept it well concealed.:Thump::Rolling:

No idea & I wasn't aware that was his nick name until training had finished & then only because I read it on an old link he posted trying to contact old school mates in the UK.

I only knew him as Sluggo. [bigrolf]

I also had the cable crumble on an Oricom, but mine is a model they don't make anymore, so no spares. [bigsad]
