Your wonderful pseudonames

Oh Callgirl1 you have just spoiled the illusion.
Fishnet tights and an abandoned air!

I always thought I felt younger than my age but life caught up with me a few years ago. I was feeling a little pessimistic when I first registered. Sometimes wonder about changing my user name but I have got used to it - and I can remember it!

MawBroon was a nod to my Scottish Heritage and to the Sunday Post for whom my father started writing while still in his teens.

I am (in 'real life') known by six variations of my forename - different people from different times in my life call me slightly different things and always have. I conceived my username on a Saturday, so I became Day6, (I was going to call myself SaturdayGran but it was a bit much to type!) - and I have been asked if it's a biblical reference too!

I wish I had introduced myself to OH by one of the shortened forms of my name, but I gave him my full moniker when I met him, which I am not fond of, and he uses it.

MawBroon
Just out of interest what does the Broon part mean?
I imagine you striding about in the Highlands brandishing a cormach!

Mine came about when i had booked a trip to India and it was the furthest I had ever travelled.

Because I do?

Broon is Brown

Mine is a childhood nickname and my nearest city!

Some years ago, I stayed with my daughter who was working in Japan. She remarked that the locals didn't often see an old Gaijin (foreigner) so oldgaijin I have been since!

I'm loving all the explanations and wish I'd been more inventive with mine.

MawBroon...Iv'e just seen your picture on another thread and I imagined you as a battleaxe in a pinny, wielding a rolling pin...how wrong I was!

I just love dragonflies and the year I was born. I use it for everything.

Because I am

I was going to choose noodle but thought it made be sound a bit daft (probably more accurate that my eventual choice ) so ended up with doodle.

Mine is after my dear old Mum who had vascular dementia and as her memory got worse she used to say "Oh I'm going gaga". Hence Gagagran .

I’m just boring.....abbreviation of my middle name and a random letter. I also forgot to put a fullstop in between! I suppose it could be taken as an ancient Egyptian pharaoh!

Day6 did you never have an opportunity to mention to your DH that you'd prefer a different version of your name?

Mine is because i boogie around the kitchen to the radio. Keeps me fit!

The bags bit is part of a family nickname for me. When I first became a Granny my brother phoned and said "Hello Grannybags" so it sort of stuck!

My fragrance is Chanel No 5 Sue
For anyone who is interested, we stayed in a lovely lemon grove on the Amalfi Coast, and I do like a slice in my G&T.
Love the cat pics on here....more please!

I chose the name Apricity because it's an old word meaning the warmth of the sun in winter which is the way I feel about my life now. ?

chosen on a very good day

I couldn't possibly say!

Enforced "laziness" brought me to Gransnet so when i decided to start posting i thought it described my state - lolling - but i accidentally missed off the g.
