I think I can bear to call you Bear though, that sounds much friendlier. Cuddly even

As in rubbish, crap, etc.

Re: I have noticed
My username, other than the '46' is already an abbreviation of my name so cannot be shortened much further. It was a username from two previous forums (fora?) and when they closed I migrated to the same new sites as others, keeping the username to be recognised. As on here, we were not allowed to mention names of previous sites, other members names or any forum usernames, so that was that problem easily solved without breaking any rules or offending or upsetting anyone.
