Games With Names

  Lately I've found a new way of amusing myself.

  At work the office radio is currently tuned to Breeze FM, a local radio station that has the motto "Tune In, Feel Good." and tends towards cheerful DJs playing pleasant songs that are easy to listen to.
 Not exactly my preferred musical fare but still more fun than Radio One and as long as I get some 80s pop in there, we're good. At work you just want something tuneful in the background after all.

  Now Breeze run a regular daily feature called "A-Z" whereby listeners can get in touch and request certain songs provided they fit the letter of the day: One day it's artists beginning with "B"; the next, they want bands starting with "C". You get the drift.

 I liked this idea. I started using the website to get in some some selections that were probably a little optimistic. (Realistically, anything with guitars in it that wasn't by Fleetwood Mac was a tad unlikely.)
  But it did mean I got to hear my (real) name read out on radio and sad specimen that I am, that kinda made my afternoon.

Then I had a mischief-fueled brainwave. 

"I wonder what other names I can get them to read out." 

  When I sent in song suggestions I started getting a little more creative with the names I used. Here's some of the ones that have been read out on the air by a slightly bemused DJ.

  Now hopefully the guys at Breeze FM found this amusing because I'd hate to think I was making somebody annoyed or upset. I definitely don't want anybody thinking "Oh God, not this twat again."

  I think they are starting to catch on though, because recent suggestions have passed by unheralded.

Maybe using The Dog of Wisdom was a mistake?  Could be.

  That's all folks.
