What's in a name?
« on: 27 November, 2015, 07:44:14 pm »
I was in a primary school today and noticed a name below a photograph of a pupil.  His Christian name was  Rocco and I thought, "That's nice, though it's more likely to be after Madonna's celebrette than the great Rocco of Audax fame."  Then I saw his second name.  Armstrong.

Well that's the more blunt way of putting it but as usual he's dead right.

Not a lot.  That's Sir Rocco Forte in the pic.  He's a triathlete amongst other things.

Yes, thanks, Ian, I was being a bit slow and twigged it after I'd switched off - Rocco Forte, the big cheese......
