Thread Name: BS: (Another) matter of etiquette.
Subject: RE: BS: (Another) matter of etiquette.
I'm not really a titfertat sort of chap. The only thing about my calling Dick Dick is that I've been doing it for donkeys' years, and he's suddenly started to object. I mean, huh? I call Dave Dave, John John and Maggie Maggie. Doubtless others. Don't really give a flying doodah, but my real name is Steve, all who love me call me Steve so that'll do me. The only exception is when I've done something wrong, in which case my missus calls me Stephen. When that happens, I know I'm in trouble.
