Remembering Wildcamping members names!

[mariesnowgoose]

My memory gets worse every year!

I hope I know some of you enough by now to hope you won't be offended by the following....

We started keeping lists of names as reminders from way back when.

Now I have to say that Neil is even worse than I am at remembering names, and the "who's who" problem of matching forum names with real names.
I've just asked him to print out the latest list of 'names' (no, not Lloyds' Names!) as a reminder to take in the van with us (saves a bit of embarrassment!)

I'm dropping him in it here, but these were a few of his own 'personal' reminders noted alongside the names....

Maingate - Jim, looks like Ringo Starr
Dave and Mary - Chirpy Southerners
A Nutter - Anita, Blonde Scrabble Player
Bigusdickus - Richard, good on blues guitar
2cv - Bill and Susie - has Pass the Bomb and Bananagram games!
Campervanannie - Annie, Gobby Pyromaniac
LeeLinda - Lee, V. tall guy (6'8") & Linda, short blonde plump wife (editor's note: he's a dead man now I've disclosed this!! )
MeDuck - p*sses in a bottle, loses van keys
Minisorella - Jennie, tall, slim, very white teeth
Tompa - Jim & Carol - has newts and a skinny dog
Wildebus - David, looks like John Thaw, has Escape from Colditz game, speciality: the history of Airfix

I daren't go on..... !

Just wondering - anybody else have a bad memory and a similar system for remembering people and names?

 

[Trotter]

I misread Tompa as having nits.

 

[trevskoda]

Marie can you not remember saying I was on a promise.

 

[n brown]

ask '' what's your name again ? ''
when they tell you 'just say '' oh i know that ! ,i meant your second name !''

 

[wildebus]

"Looks like John Thaw"? I've not heard that before

guess better than "Looks like Rab C Nesbitt"

Guess that's Neils' eyesight for you, David - keep trying to get him to go back to Specsavers

Izwazral strange tast in pants

 

[Red Dwarf]

Reassuring to know that I’m not the only one that has mostly lost the ability to recall names. Since being on this forum I’ve been referred to as ‘Red’, I have to admit to sort of liking it...... sad old age thing I guess...

Red.

Oh dear, we've got 'im termorra rooting through my things, what is his strange "tast in pants" and should we be worried?

 

[Tezza33]

Don't tell me that you forgot Maggy's name

 

[GMJ]

I'm not sure Mrs GMJ would like to be described as "plump" (a la LeeLinda in the OP)!

 

[myvanwy]

What where we talking about?

 

[Tim120]

Dave was ignoring me when I spoke to him, weren't you Paul.
