I have a number 3, a 73 and one not on the list which surprises me (Kate - there's Katie, but not Kate).


My Mum likes to joke that these days to name a baby you look at a list of recently deceased people in their 80's and older, and pick at random. She's not too far off if I think of names I hear these days, especially boys.

My daughters have traditional names like these and none are on the list, neither are any of their middle names.

Quite nice to be different rather than follow the crowd.

    • Interesting question as I always think of Franco Manca as a local restaurant after eating in the original in Brixton Market decades ago but you then see they have places all over the UK so are very much a chain - although I hasten to add I was eating in the original as a teenager when it was just Franco's!!!
    • When I had a property with a basement there would often be a pool of water in the centre. I was told it was related to the fluctuating height of the water table in the area (se22) and would not become a problem and the only way to get rid of it would be to get the whole place completely tanked. 
    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
