Thread Name: BS: Giok and Jock
Subject: Giok and Jock
For those of you who may be confused about the Giok/Jock spellings that I use. I wanted to use the name Jock when I registered which is what I was always known as on the folk scene,but it was taken. So I remembered what they wrote on my tab in an Italian run cafe I used to use in Richmond, Surrey [UK], many years ago. They used the Italian phonetic version i.e. Giok, and there you have it the birth of a nick-name.

Jock/Giok/John
