    On my way back from Cheltenham on the A-something-something today I noticed
    a sign to Ginge.

    You should move there. Then, right, your nickname would be the same as the
    place you lived!

    It's not pronounced the same, IIRC. It has a hard 'g', unlike Ginge,
    who apparently has two soft ones...

    Maybe I should just change my name to where I live anyway. Maybe we all
    should!

    There's a place north of Bishops Stortford called Ugley.

    They've even got an Ugley Women's Institute :)

    I thought about mentioing that but then I thought about how much I
    apprecicate my anonymity and how unlikely it would be for anyone to bring it
    up.

    Pfff!
