Warm boot recommendations please

[Ain't Nobody Here]

Oh, they do! Especially Squeezekins - he has started complaining about being called Diseasel - can't think why, it's just cos it rhymes with squeezle .

[The Dogmother]

My girls are collectively called The Chickie-dees. Their names are sort fo shortened versions of their full names, which are mostly songs from my youth:

 

Sadie: Sexy Sadie

Ruby: Ruby Tuesday (Rubes)

Dolly: Ms Parton

Betty: Black Betty ram a dam (Betty Boo)

Lucille: As in 'you picked a fine time to leave me'

Jude: Hey Jude

Roxanne: see The Police (Roxy)

Lily: Lily The Pink

Fleur: not named after a song, name just suits her

Lavinia: not named after a song, but she's lavender coloured

 

Cats: Georgie - Usually called slinky because she flattens herself like a slinky; Biscuit - Fat Boy

 

Bunnies; well their names are sort of nicknames anyway - Hunny Bunny and Cupcake

 

Fish - only one of them is named - Lucy after a friend who has the memory of a goldfish

We are terrible for nicknames in this family.

 

Eggzeena - Eggy

katya - Mother

Dippy - Dipsy/just Dippy

Sapphire - Busty Bertha or Bertha to her friends because she is so plump compared to all the others

 

I once had a cat called Fleabag then later on we had another called Witty Woo and we called our dear departed cat Toffee Boff all for obvious reasons.

 

When our eldest child was a baby she was called Cheesy again for obvious reasons and our youngest gets called Bad Mood Bear and Kitten Fluff dependant on her mood. Our son was always J Man now shortened to J.

 

My hubby called me Skinny for years until I wasn't so skinny now I get called Mum/Boss. He hasn't really got a nickname.

 

The cats are called Wiggy & Piggy(very greedy)

 

P.s. we are all quite sane
