    Was same year but none of the same classes, she didn't stand out to me, was OK'ish looking, didn't know of any music talent. Wonder what she's up to these days?

    Ebeneezer Cobb Morely?

    How is that a name? Even 100 years ago that's just silly.

    Yeah but at least Edna's a real name. You can read it and say it aloud straight away, what the **** is an Ebeneezer though? How do you even say that?!

    Sorry but it's just upsetting me.

    Funny how names are chosen, it's quite normal to take a famous persons name ie in the past parents would name their kids after George or Victoria or other Royals. Kids in the near distant future will be given ****e double barrelled names because all the celebs are doing it. God help us if someone chooses something like Apple or Seven. No doubt Amy will be remerging now because of Amy Winehouse.

    Just seen a classic Only Fools and Horses episode where they go to Margate. The bit at the beginning where Marlene is out with her new baby and Cassandra asks her what she called it and she replies "Tyler" and Del goes "if it was a female they'd have called it Ruth. Get it Ruth Tyler".
