Hi

This set me off on a voyage of discovery, so thanks you so much for your post.

My surname I always thought was pure English, I was so so wrong.

It is a French Surname brought to England in 1066 to reward the French Invaders with land.

That hurts. the French are not my favourite people.

My first name, once common, is now very rare.

Almost extinct here in the UK.

I had thought that I was not on Wiki at all, but sadly disappointed to find one reference to me.

This is in spite of being of being very careful and having been on TV and the Radio.

My kids, when young, used to think it was great fun seeing me on the Local TV and or Radio then imitating my accent.They have very different accents to me.

Mine is from Lancashire, then Yorkshire, a real local accent.

They where born in Suffolk and Shropshire, sounded very posh to me and Mum was always teaching them not to have my accent.

All good fun.

No, I think it is against OFC rules to identify yourself (at least I have a vague recollection that it is).

However I am enjoying the efforts so far though none even close.
