I remember listening to the radio one day & they were talking about the worst blokes name & Gordon was mentioned, on the plus side Gordon Jones, who I wasn't named after, was our first ever league cup debutant 11 days before I was born, maybe that swayed my dad who was a massive Boro fan

Good enough for me, the same as the first captain to lead us to promotion in my time

I owe the actor Mark Bentons parents a ton of thanks for my middle name....

Their son gets Mark. They decide on my middle name and i get.....


Put it this way. MARK Benton sounds a hell of a lot better than BRUCE Benton dont it?.....

Lovely family actually. His parents are my godparents. 👍

And Mark is a lovely fella. Only met him a few quick times but there aint no airs and graces with him.

A Gtown lad forever.

Me and my mate at work play a game we call 'name-a-likes'.

We see hundreds of names a day and my favourite name-a-likes so far are:
  • Mick Faldo
  • Ivan Rendall
  • Ralph Horace
  • Elton Mowbray
  • Paul McCarthy

What about the name Mark?.

1 night not long ago all i could hear outside was "Mark", "Mark", "Mark" "Mark".

After an hour i was proper pissed off so i went out to investigate.

Turns out it was a dog with a hare-lip..............


NO!!! This is my train. You get off!! 😅😅

My dad stopped the 1st chosen name which i believe was to be Robert so it would of been Robert Bruce as a nod to the geezer from history (not sure if the Bentons are of Scottish stock).
I would of preferred Robert. Never liked the name Kenneth.

Even writing the name Kenneth still makes me duck. Its what my mum always shouted before she lobbed a glass dish at me or a right hook! 😅😅

BoroRedKen

Proper set me off thinking now about names and useage of them.

For eg yesterday out with Lids and his mum and dad for a pint.

I call Lids dad by his christian name but the "respect" i have for mates mums i never call his mum by her 1st name.

Never thought of why i do that til now. 🤔

BoroRedKen

My mum was lethal with me. I did deserve it mind!.

But you went for 1 of her kids and she would unleash unbridled fury on you.
And i mean fury!.

Maybe thats why i respect mates mums. Different breed of rock solid females.
The original FAFO brigade.

BoroRedKen

Thats why i get nervous!

The problem comes from the way we all say "could've" which is a contraction of "could have"; so..

could've
should've
might've
would've

..are all fine. You're only getting a reprimand for the use of "of" instead of "have". It's not a spelling issue or a grammar issue, it's just the wrong fucking word!

BoroRedKen

As ever Tel i am always willing to learn!

Me too. I've learned loads on here especially from Gordon.
