when I was an apprentice we had an old fitter whose nickname was "Timber" cos he had a wooden leg

Used to work with a guy called Ken who had two nicknames, eight-nine and ballpoint.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this:



Ok, not a nickname but funny.

A couple of my mates:

BUFF - big ugly fat f*cker.
We have a guy in work that most
People don't like, some of the guys refer to him as TC. He think it stands for top cat, but it's really that c*nt.

Another guy has long hair and a big beard and looks a bit like an ape, he used to just be monkey boy, until someone came up with "VIDAL BABOON" :rollin:

Got a young lad at our work who people started calling ASBO, which he believed gave him a bit of a tougher image.


When i asked why he was called that the reply was "Because he 'as B.O."   :lol

I started as Razi the Spazi at school.
Which I then managed to get shorten to Razi  :smokin around the time of Happy days  :smokin being on Telly.
I'm just plain Raz now.


Had a mate called Bandit coz he lost an arm in a bike accident. but that's a common name for one armed people

I have a really skinny friend who we all call "Muscles" :)
We had a co worker many years ago when I worked in Dublin who was very very quiet and never said much, everyone called him "Full of Chat" :)
