I believe you are right, but it always is very confusing!

I know! Especially when people think that the skateboarding bloke went round Ireland with a fridge...They seem to find it difficult to understand that there are two slightly odd people out there with very similar names.

Sadly not. I've been asked that before.
Sorry to disappoint, the name has nothing to do with him - just based on the end of my first name (jenniFER) and thanks to a slightly mad flatmate!

I think that is probably be a blessing actually!
Have you been at h2g2 long?

Ferino Posted Mar 4, 2003
haha! I dunno, maybe I could do with a while being a latin goddess! my success rate couldn't be any worse than it is now!
I've been kicking about here for a few months, can't really remember when I first signed up - maybe in September/October.
I can only get bbc sites at work and my job is unbelievably dull as a rule, so this place is a godsend for my idle mind and wandering thoughts!

Sorry to butt in but I thought you might like a laugh.
Comedian Tony Hawks of the fridge fame often gets e mails from lads who mistake him for skateboard champion Tony Hawk. Tony Hawks replies to the emails. Read a selection of them - with his replies here:

Hi Abi! All well I hope?
I'm just bumping this back up to the top of your conversations. Take a look at the Tony Hawks link if you want a laugh.

I have seen it and spent many a happy moment giggling and then relistening to Stutter Rap! LOL
