Patf Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 Craig - that made me laugh [:D]But also Eric's mistake with Craig and Graig - we had friends here, now returned to the UK, and he was called Craig. He told us that the locals couldn't pronounce his name. It came out like Ggrrrraig, with the gutteral "r".[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave up expecting that a long time ago ... [:)]Mind you, being called Ggrrraig is a lot better than some of the things I've been called in my life ...[Www] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
