I claim the 'most boring' prize - it's part of my car's registration number  :-[

Were you looking at your car when you registered?!   :D

Just back from marching on Whitehall with my new idea for something called 'democracy'. 

What was the question? :-\

The avatar is open for all those sad enough to recognise it, a prize for those that guess correctly.

My standard username I usually use is matonet. My name is Mat. Ergo Mat with 1 't'. When registering with the pendraken forum, I couldn't think of anything original and got the name of a horse from the form guide. Hence 'Ziparoo'. The serendipitous link with this is that I'm an Aussie and now have a username with 'roo' on the end.

My father-in-law's probably lost some pennies backing Ziparoo...

clibinarium

My first proper painting commission was lots of late Romans, I hadn't been into ancients before but the period seemed cool enough to draw me in. Around the same time I had to pick a username for a forum (can't remember which one) so thought clibinarium would be obscure enough not to have been picked by anyone else.

If I had managed to spell it right i.e. clibanarius who knows how things may have worked out.

7 or 8 years ago I hit a deer with the car.  The deer bounced off the car, snorted, then ran away.  Of course the whole front end was destroyed.  My son, who was in the back seat said, 'At least it wasn't a moose because they don't bounce off cars.'

Hence, MooseDontBounce

Greetings

'Kustenjaeger' from a company of the German 'special forces' Brandenburg Regiment in WW2 - specialising in coastal raiding operating in the Aegean.  I came across the unit in an article about the German assault on Leros in 1943 and was intrigued.

Regards

Edward
