    Henceforth I shall address you as Doni.

    If you change the first letter you'll have my family pet name that is stopped answering to when I was 10 ( I regret that now) My cousins in England still call me by it. When I started school it took me ages to realise the name they were calling out for me during roll call was my name!

    Oooh I think I worked out your name. If I'm right, it's one of my favourite names!!

    Possibly. It has a far more common diminutive and if anyone dares call me it they are immediately put on my kill list.

    I missed Bruce but he's on Graham tomorrow night so I'll watch him then.
    I saw him in Kilkenny about 8 years ago, by far the best concert I've ever been at. His energy is amazing.

    Yup. Especially when you very politely inform them you don't like that version of your name and to please stop calling you it and they carry on. I find it over familiar.

    I have that annoying song "Hello, this is Joni, I'm driving but I'm not home" in my head now! I think I still need to change the first letter though.

    It's like the Irish Times Crosaire crossword here tonight, or a game of guess who. :D

    I'll have a different consonant please, Carol.

    I didn't even know I knew that song and now it's earworming me.

    Sorry about the ear worm, it's an incredibly irritating song.

    I'm neither Marie nor Antoinette. I'm sure plenty of folk have wanted my head in a basket though. It's really not obvious. The nickname came from me mispronouncing my own name when I was learning to talk, so I'm told. Now I fancy cake, but I don't have any. I do have pie and some gala you chocolate. Decisions, decisions

    It's the repeating riff that earworms. It's better than the previous earworm though.

    I've decided on Galaxy and bed with fluffy blanky and Netflix.

    Felt stressed and overwhelmed earlier, took to bed and woke up a few hours later feeling much better and hungry.

    Chilled in my default horizontal position on the couch now, looking forward to tuning into DJ Funkybeak on Mixcloud a little later. His mix of 70s disco, 80s pop, and 90s dance is divine! :cool:

    This, or in simple terms - a general chat thread.
