Thers a guy who lives in the Polwarth area who's name is Colin Manlove.

 

 

Id guess judging by his name that his footballing loyalties lie in Leith.

 

I went to school with a John Manlove from Polwarth who's presumably some relation.

 

He was a hobo

Id imagine its a certainty that they're related.

 

It also appears that my guess on where his footballing loyalties lay was spot on aswell. :thumbsup:

There was an A. Ponce at my old work and also a Victorino Casino.

 

My mate had a client in Hong Kong called Nelson ######-yu Tsang. F#K

 

A guy in my year at college got a summer job with a company called Poole and Dick (say it quickly).

 

At work, I used to deal with a guy named Jesus Ponce!

I'm pretty sure I raced against A and P Ness in school's skiing a few years ago.

 

Anyway, had a teacher called Mr Dreyer, aka Herr Dreyer. Also there's a chap in the Fife Phonebook (or there was) called Maurice Cheeseman, which was about the funniest thing ever to a 10 year old. Also knew of an "Iona Bath" which is probably good news for those close to her. And a guy studying medicine in my year was called "Love" so graduated with the new name of Dr Love, which is pretty much the best name ever, certainly when it comes to pulling the ladies.

When i was wee, and I used to go round to see if my mate was coming out to play, I always chuckled at the name above his on the intercom.

 

A. Hardman.
