I used to work for a well known paper products manufacturer and there really was a member of staff called Kimberly Clark!

Wow, I'd forgotten that as well - I was at school with their son Alastair. A long time ago now.

I was at school with a Teresa Fern and a Glen Hills.

I like the weather man's name, and I won't spell it right, Tomas Schiffernacker!

My mum went to school with Annette Curtain and Rose Bush...

I was hugely priviliged to be present when the "Hugh Jass" gag was sprung on one of my old bosses. Being a nightclub owner (that also had live bands playing regularly) he was always bustling around and totally harassed. He crashed into the office one day and immediately started on his "call back" list which the assistant manager would compile during the day...

*roll number five callback*

"Hi there, is that Hugh?"

<inaudible answer fro the other end of the line>

"Well can I speak to him please, it's Robert caling him back"

"Hugh. H-U-G-H."

"Hugh Jass..? He tried to call me earlier?"

"No I'm not f***ing winding you up"

"Listen pal, I'm a busy man and you're wasting my ti..."

.

.

.

.

"...someone's taking ***t out of me, aren't they..?"

He took it well considering... we were all back on full pay by January...

Could be worse, my huby's surname is Head (you can see why I kept my own!) and on that side of the family he had an uncle unfortunately named Richard!
