True story


A friend of a friend's mother was Terry (Monty Python) Jones's cleaner. She had two boys called Genghis and Adolf.


I kid you not.


Terry had the family round one afternoon and made the boys some food. My pal says his abiding memory is of Terry standing on the back door step shouting "Genghis! Adolf! Pizza."


I can't tell you their surname because I think they still live around here but that was daft as well

The Leader of the Opposition in Australia, back in the days when Bob Hawke was PM, was called Andrew Peacock. Fortunately for him, no one spotted that joke at the time.

3 brothers called Sir Ricky, sir Ryan and sir Reece.


Queen Ann


Boy called OJ (orange juice) and his brother called AJ (Apple juice). They apparently had a sister called cinnamon but I never met her.

Is this a joke or are you Katie Hopkins or something?

They should have a blackcurrant juice for comedy value.

I worked for a German company and had a colleague whose surname was Kuntz (true).

I had a colleague in our German office whose last name was Wankum.

Oh, that's reminded me of someone I used to know named her daughter Brie. Yes, that's right, after the cheese.

    • Hey all 👋 I’m fairly new to running and have (perhaps ambitiously!) signed myself up for a half marathon later this year. I’d love to find a few others who are also just starting out and fancy running together in a relaxed, non-intimidating way.  The idea would be a very low-key, beginner-friendly run club — lots of jogging, walking breaks totally welcome, zero pressure on pace or distance. I’m particularly keen to create a small, supportive group for women who might feel more comfortable running as part of a group, especially around the park. I was thinking of doing gentle runs around Peckham Rye Park to start with. If that sounds like something you’d be up for, give me a shout — would be lovely to see if there’s enough interest to get something going 😊
    • Hey rugby fans,   Happy New Year!   Try Time Kids' Rugby is back this coming Saturday (10th Jan) for the Spring Term! If you struggle to find things to do with your little ankle biters on Saturday mornings, why not come down to Try Time Kids' Rugby and let us take them off your hands for an hour? As well as transferable sports skills, we teach our 2-7 year old members the four pillars of sports that Try Time was founded on, encouraging them to be energetic, imaginative, inclusive and respectful.   Sessions run 9.30-10.30am and 10.45-11.45am on Saturdays depending on the age group. We also run an inclusive more relaxed group for children that would otherwise get lost in our normal fast paced sessions at 10.45am. With Pay As You Go sessions available for those not looking to commit to a full term, there's something for everyone!   Both boys and girls are welcome, sibling discounts are available!   Sign up for a trial today at https://ttkr-dulwich.classforkids.io/   Contact Kat today at [email protected] if you have any questions or would like more details! See you on the pitch!
    • I would think so too but surely they are losing money now anyways from not building for so long
    • From what I’ve researched online, they aren’t issuing any opportunities for sub post office licenses in this area for ages so LL is so stressed out. If this is ever going to improve they need to start allowing applications for licenses in this area so complaining may be helpful if anyone can do this when they have time using the link from above? It’s very annoying indeed using LL especially when collecting
