    This did not really happen to your brother, did it?

    If so, huge coincidence that it also happened on a recent reality tv programme!!

    I always find True Story at the end of the story means it's not in fact a true story.

    My real name, Moonbeam, clearly marks my parents out as severe right-wing war-mongering holocaust deniers.

    When my big sister was born, they had two name possibilities, and chose one. Then I came along three years later, and got her leftovers. :eek: So they liked her name better. And we're in our 30s and she STILL lords it over me.

    It did yeah. And he worked in England between 87-90, so obviously the story got around and other people are nicking it. What reality show btw? He'd get a buzz out of knowing he's (sorta) famous.

    I can't find the video link, but if you go down to the comments at the end, someone else is talking about it. (6th comment)
