I used to work with a bloke called Michael Hunt...

... lucky his name wasn't Isaac, I suppose.



Coming back to place names, I nearly drove off the road when driving through Bavaria, when I saw a sign for the village of Wank. I presume it's pronounced 'Vank' - but I wonder what you call someone from that village?

On a slightly related note, our work is absolutely useless at thinking through abbreviations. We have Picsolve Asia-Pacific (PAP), Picsolve US (PUS), my region is Southern UK (SUK), and most appropriately my line managers title is Business Unit Manager, or BUM

Hey with my surname, everyone assumes I am some orange antiques expert...people dont seem to notice the difference of spelling. Does get a bit old after the 100th time though.
