What's in a name?
Sandcastles, Charlottes nursery, take two whole weeks off a year, one on Christmas week, and the other on the 12th week of July. For those of you who are not from sunny Northern Ireland, the 12th week in July is the week in July that contains the 12th date, for that day is a public holiday. A day when men use their British freedom , decide to walk down a particular road(s) wearing orange ribbons; these men are called 'Orange men', not to be confused with David Dickinson. This results in a) other people loose there British freedom to go down that road to get to somewhere else, and have to go a different road; b) Nationolist Polititions don't get a lie in; c) A good excuse for a few riots, bombs, rapes and murders by people who don't understand freedom.
Anyway, the holidays ment that as both Julie and I were working on Friday, Carol nad Billy came to look after Charlotte. They taught Charlotte 'Humpty Dumpty', but Charlotte could not say 'Humpty Dumpty' and it came out more like 'Engelbert Humperdinck'. Could this be where Arnold Dorsey got the name, trying to convince his manager that the stage name 'Humpty Dumpty' would bring in a younger audience, but unable to say it due to having been at the dentist?
