Traveller is called "Ricky" because the numberplate contains the letters RK.
Project convertible is called "Dibble" by the previous owner because number plate contains DB.
4-door in front garden is called "Madelaine" because a previous
owner named it and painted the name on the bootlid.

quote:
mine is called "pain in the DONT SWEAR OR YOU WILL BE BANNED" on many occasions, but is nick named "miss marple on steriods".
I put ****. I thought **** was an impolite word for a part of the anatomy, not a swear word.
I still call it that anyway regularly.
Thank you for the explanation, though I'm sure most of us knew what you'd put. The swear filter is there to comply with the wishes of the club's committee, and finding ways around it is pretty unhelpful, frankly

just for those who spot this later on, in my second post i did not put the full word, I used a ? in it, I did not repeat it in full like I used it the first time. I will not use that word on here again but I stand by my comment that this word is impolite rather than swearing. I personally don't swear much but I do use that word occasionally. Often about that car.
I want to point that out because anybody reading this part of this thread will see the 1st and 2nd alteration and think I put it again in full, and I didn't.
2nd post was an explanation rather than trying to be clever but it was obviously taken as the latter.

Hi All,
By way of introduction my name's Mick, I live in Burton on Trent, UK and I've just bought my first Minor: a '65 Tourer/Convertible in Smoke Grey.
Well I thought about calling mine Johnny (geddit?) but the wife doesn't like it . Sooo..... I'm open to suggestions, his/her initials are FYC ***C. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Mick
PS Note to self: must change those awful number plates
