Title: Titles
Post by: pierre the shy on 07 May 2021, 11:06:26 AM
So what's the story with all the name changes lately?

We now have Lord Kermit of Birkenhead, Lord Lensman of Wellington and Lord Speedy of Leighton.....has Leon been selling off forum titles to help pay for the new premises or is this something that happens when you reach 10 gazillion posts and are already a Field Marshal?  :- ;)

You forgot Lord Oik of Runcorn, who I believe was the first elevated to the peerage|?
Title: Re: Titles
Post by: Techno II on 09 May 2021, 10:18:51 AM
Yeah.....I started it all off with 'Nobby'......And he was certainly the first to get a peerage....That was after he sent me a suitcase full of crisp 'onecers'.

I think he got a 'knighthood' first........Or more likely just 'Oik of the year'. ;)

Cheers - Phil :)

I know....But don't our friends over the other side of the Atlantic still have one dollar bills ??

That's worth less than 75 pence.....(I've just looked it up.) ;)

Cheers - Phil. :)

I actualy purchased a Scottish Lord's title recently with the 'lands' I bought at Glencoe (mind you; it's just 2 square feet...)  so I am now officially a Lord. Maybe I should change my name as well... 'Lord Ace of Spades of Glencoe'... hmm... 

Cheers,
Rob

No...No..No...No...No. ;)

Maybe Lord Rob of Glencoe...But you'll have to be a very good boy.

Donations to "Techno"..behind the pipes...third washroom along.....(I've forgotten the rest.)

Cheers - Phil  :P

Hmmm... since I'm a Scottish Lord, could we make that a Lord McRob of Glencoe...? And how good would I have to be for that exactly? Just asking...

Cheers,
Rob

"Laird" surely?

I had a choice, Laird, Lord or Lady... With my wife claiming the 'Lady' title I went for the 'Lord' option. It has a more international ring to it I think... plus it goes better with my devine aspirations!

Cheers,
Rob
