Hi all, we dont really say much but from time to time we like to have our "ten pence worth", couldn't spell penniths......... penneths,..........pennaths rolleyes ' oh forget it', any how, where were we, oh yes.
We get our fare share of let downs and that very thing has happened over the last couple of days, but dont always get what we believe to be a good responce either, 'GO LOOK AT THE PIX' do you not think she is for "real", 'did that sound pretentious' lol , yes we are quite fussy, but whats wrong in that.
We have a theory, we think that people may think we might be a little pretentious with names like "PoshnBecks", please let me assure you we are not at all pretentious.
Our name came about in the early days of swingingheaven, we were not sure of a name for ourselves and as mods in those day the other mods came up with suggestions, PoshnBecks won the vote.
Sometimes guys you are not what we are looking for, no matter how much you want that 50 to look like a 40 or that VWE to look like Endowed :cry:.
'Should we change our name'
ps, thanks to KitnKat for the name back then wink
PoshnBecks
I would just like it put on record that I was not one of the mods that suggested PoshnBecks.
Geez.........as if I would. confused :?
Steve
We cant repeat what names you wanted to give us Steve, you got that image of Posh out of your mind yet mate :twisted: .
PoshnBecks, 'or is it'??????????????????????????????
I am probably not the first person who should reply, as we've never met, but for wha tit's worth, here's what I think...
You're entitled to be as fussy as you want - you know what you want and what you expect another person to be like, and I wouldn't expect any less.
A name's a name. For myself, the real P & B are people I'd not want to know. But a nickname, for heaven's sake, how could I or why would I judge you on that? Who knows what you think of mine!
You don't come across as pretentious to me, not at all. I've read some posts by you, sometimes I broadly agree, sometimes I broadly don't - that's pretty normal I think.
If you want to change your name, it's up to you, but I'd be surprised if it made much difference to your experience. One thing people have to accept is that you are you, you know what you want, and if they're not it, well, that's all there is to it!
Just be reassured that from this relative newbie's point of view, you come across fine as you are.

Good point WW.
SplishnSplosh, rotflmao :rotflmao: :rotflmao: .
just kidding.
PoshnBecks
Someone's username would not influence me in whether or not I should contact them. Its just a name, & as soon as you get to know someone you (normally !!) find out their real names anyway.
And of course you can be as fussy as you want to be about who you want to meet. rolleyes wink

Which reminds me, wasn't there mention of a prize at the time? :huh: - Although I would also like to go on record as not being responsible - the suggestion was Kit's .
New names then:
Hammer 'n' Tongs hump
The Rose and The Thorn. :P
or.....
Gollum and Precious? :twisted: :twisted:

Why don't you paint the tail of Posh like British Airways did - (I guess you won't be spending too much money) then NO one will be able to recognise you good folks *grin*
Then you will have to do a mass-market campaign to tell everyone (ok - the people you know) on the board "who you were before" and "who you are now"...
...and going by what happened to BA, - you will revert back to PoshnBecks and along the way would have lost lots of people who read / lookout for you posts.
In a nutshell - keep your name.
I'd say keep it. It's obviously tongue in cheek and as original as any. Does anyone really think you are the celebrities or multimillionaires and who cares if you were - you are who you are and, from other peeps perspective, the people portrayed in your SH posts and the impressions you create when you meet people, not yourname!
I for one get a genuine good vibe from you - and you had the humility to even question your name - so until proved otherwise you're both cool with me and you can use any name you like!!
:happy:
I say keep the names. Its how we have all come to know you as. biggrin
Talking of pretentious, what about my name? I've lived in the same village for 44 years, not much of a nomad am i?? On the other hand, the soul maybe, but the body is definately a 'stop at home' lol
btw, I think its pen'orth :D

Well said young man lol
OK, I admit to making this suggestion many moons ago. At the time it felt kinda right and it still does now wink
IMHO it fits you both perfectly :twisted:
On the other hand however, if you don't feel comfy with it - change it :lol: :lol:
Just don't ask me for any more bloomin suggestions rolleyes :wink:
Still waiting for my 'prize' cool
I say keep it. Whenever I see or hear it I sit up and pay attention and it's got nothing to do with football or crap singing.
Dear Bosch & Pecks,
There are celebs with your names? I think you should sue.
Kind regards

We keep the name, Kit obviously did her home work, heard us, met us, named us, but how she came up with the name "heaven" only knows :giggle: , 'get it, do you get it'.
Its just dawned on us, we once stayed at the same hotel as KItKat a while ago, she must have seen my ball control and then heard Linda screaming with delight lol .
The name stays.
have fun all, PoshnBecks
:smug: :smug: :smug:
Good call guys wink
for you both passionkiss
