Probably been done somewhere already but I thought it could do with a repeat performance.

Why did you choose your current PH name?

Since I started I'll go first:

ProPlus, used to suffer from terrible insomnia and some days the only way I could face a day's work was with caffeine and lots of it, hence the ProPlus.

Oh and because I always seem to be hyper!!

Next.

If every there were a Channel 4-style "Top 10 most repeat thread subjects" list compiled, then this one would be somewhere in it. As would the Speed 6 engine debate and Porsche vs TVR, no doubt.

I think mine is bloody obvious. I was drunk when I signed up for PH and therefore typed it wrong but its near enough. Amazed how many people ask me what it means?

Name of t'racecar. Not very original I grant you, and indeed not very accurate. (its actually a Tiga SC84) and I wished I hadn't put the 84 bit afterwards, it makes me look like I'm 21. I'm not.

I thought it was because your surname could easily be mispronounced as Kinky B1tch

It started as my Rugby nickname, now just what people call me, I was injured alot a few seasons ago ( crashed motorbike, pulled hip flexor, broken ribs X3 etc ) and someone said I was like a tampon, in for one week out for three, not nice but you don't get to choose you nicknames. Saying that, we have one guy who we call Tiger and nobody knows why we call him it, including him ! just one of those things.

Mine is actually a clever portmanteau of both my christian name and surname.
