Cock Womble 7

I know the whole "Cock Womble" thing was a hilarious joke and I embrace it whole-heartedly, but it's becoming a bit of a millstone now.

Since buying the 7, a very PH kind of car and plastering it with PH stickers and subsequently getting more involved in the PH community, I find introducing myself as "Cock Womble" a little embarrassing.

For example, I pulled into the local Halford's car-park yesterday and was approached by the owner of a rather nice Exige.

"You're on PH, aren't you?"

"Erm, yes, I'm...."

"Yes, I know who you are, I just didn't want to shout it across the car-park."

So, in the words of The Clash, should I stay or should I go now?

You can change it to "The number before 8 is 7". That way people in Halfords car park won't know whether they've bumped into a PH resident or a Rain Man tribute act.

What's more embarrassing though, introducing yourself as "Cock Womble" or being seen in a Halfords car park?

I just wanted some jump leads (sorry, "booster cables") to get the old Rocco started.
