    Short, wide, and hairy.

    I was buffetslayer on the old forum, which accounts for the wide.

    Nothing to do with politics, religion or animal rights, it's because I own an AEC Militant recovery truck.

    This one, in fact.

    Because it was part of my dads nickname for me before and after I was born – the full title is Sidney Sideboard. I'm lucky, he called my older brother Sidney Mincing!

    Because it's what Bristolians say to the driver when they get off the bus. I'm not Bristolian or a bus driver but after a while their version of English becomes kind of endearing.

    "Mr Woppit" – until recently, the only thing to survive the crash of Donald Campbell's "Bluebird" speed record run on Coniston back in the 1960's – a small teddy bear, for "good luck". Oops.

    Ironic reference to my family life before I left home in 1971…
