I tried about four or five different variations on my name to no avail when trying to register my 1st e-mail account. Ended up making one up - [email protected] . Amusing at the time but slightly embarrassing when getting asked for it.

"Eh, its [email protected]", "Pardon?", "Ahem, yes it's [email protected]", "Can you spell that?" "B,I ...."

You get the point. I now have a grown up e-mail address.
[email protected]



I wouldn't stick up my email addy up on the net, if i were you. mate. :?

Luckily I got my Gmail account when it was invitation only (cheers Kendra), so I managed to get surname.firstname, if not firstname.surname.

After watching an episode of Flowery Twats I went for the iconic [email protected]

Then after feeling much the same, I decided that paying USD25 a year for web hosting, a domain and the ability to do my own email was a better idea :)

Being Somerset born and bred, when I was younger and the sports news mentioned cricket at The Oval, I always thought they were saying Yeovil. :)

You never know, you may have got them such a super deal that they assumed you had somehow managed to procure them a cabin in the workers quarters.
Bunking up with a wee Balinese dude who keeps making your bed when your not looking and waking up every morning with melted chocolate in your ear.

I'll take one if they're still going.

Oh, if we started on stupid things customers say I could fill 20 pages just on my own. Just on Friday I was asked of some seats, "how can they be at the back and the side?" Because of course, back is the opposite of side...*sigh*

When I worked on the phone lines for Unilever, I had a consumer ring up ring up to say that to save space, he had poured his bottle of Domestos Ox (oxygen based bleach) into his bottle of normal Domestos (chlorine based bleach), despite there being numerous warnings against this on the packaging of both products. The bottle exploded.

I know Benjamin, you really should've finished your call 1st. Popping on to forums, not using your full menatl capacity and only one handed, mistakes were bound to happen. You've just got to be watch how long you're on them premium rate lines, that shit eats your credit.
