Oddly, I was Mike to my parents and sister, but Mick to my brother, his wife and sons, and mum's siblings (they all came from Ireland). Only called Michael in the family by mum when I was in the doghouse, ditto first wife. If Veronica was unhappy with me - doghouse again - I was still Mike, but the reproachful way in which it was said......
Mike (if only she was still here to be reproachful)
Oh, and I answer to any and all of the above, but will settle for 'Sir'  ;D ;D ;D
Thank you for the days, the days you gave me.

For most of my young life I was Mickey-Drip The Bean King. Been through the Mick/Mike/Michael stuff (I prefer Michael) but I'm content as Zoony. ;)

My name too is  Michael, known by all except my mother (deceased) and my sister as Mike which I much prefer.  I used to refer to myself as Mike on here for years until Michael Rolls came along and began referring to himself as Mike and in a spirit of friendliness I decided to add the distinguishing letter X to my signoff so that there would be no confusion.  I hope nobody else usurps that.

When your name 'disappears' and then makes a come-back, you feel old!  ;D

Xetog. I too thought the X after your name was a kiss..

Everything will be alright in the end, and if it’s not alright, its not the end.

Ladies,  take the X anyway you wish, I am sure I find that a great compliment.

I'm sick & tired of hearing the LGBT people getting easily offended & constantly moaning that some sections of society won't accept their way of life.Hang on a minute, they choose to be different why should everyone have to agree to their way of life when many don't ?



It is okay to say, in general, what your views are but Whatcott had no right to harass someone personally, neither do you and neither do I.  As for being easily offended and constantly moaning … …  ::) 

Mumsnet is dealing with a similar issue.  It seems the laws of the land are beginning to be used on-line, at last.  MN are being compelled by the High Court to reveal the identity of a member who has been accused of a campaign of targeted harassment against another member who is transgender.  It will be possible, before very long I feel, to use the laws that would apply anywhere else against online miscreants.  It might be worth understanding the laws around hate speech, racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexism, etc., for the future as, I believe, ignorance of the law is no defence.
The vote for Brexit was a vote to take back what we hadn't lost in order to lose what we actually have.
