O/T (possibly) The naming of a highly trained cuddly toy chaser...

Thank you for your efforts JG, they'll go in the hat for the next purchase!

I'd already applied for Run Wild but sadly 'twas taken :(

I used to be kennel maid for a trainer who had a dog called Norfolk King Good - name had to be changed after his first race due to the loud cheer from the drunken stag party after they anounced 'Trap 1 - Norfolk King Good'!

Bugger, you're right! So who was Hilary?!

giant haystacks?

Both of the greats of British wrestling with girls names - surely not?!

you seem very clued up on wrestlers there. signs of wasted saturday afternoons in your yoof?

I loved the Saturday afternoon wrestling when I was a kid, and went to see Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks 'fight' in person at Gateshead Leisure centre

I even waited behind afterwards and got a signed photo of the artist formerly known as Shirley

I need closure on that anecdote! What's the name?

Of course I wouldn't mind a sweet little puppy using the respected Gnu Odor family name (a timely response there, huh?). The thing is, you never end up calling a pet by its given name anyway, do you?

By the way, I probably never would have gone with Gnu Odor had I thought I'd ever post here (he says, 300+ posts later).

I used to have a cat named Dog Food.

"What's that, his diet?"

"No...that's his destiny."

Possibly worth a mild chuckle:
