My other game is again, rather loudly, in a queue
“ has our social been paid in yet ?”
The irony being: people actually refer to pay day or being paid when receiving their dole.
As if they have worked for it etc.
I had one the other day complaining that they had missed out on a benefit and were insisting the council will give them backpay - they hadn't worked a day in their life...My other game is again, rather loudly, in a queue

Ha that's amazing. I said to my wife if we had a boy I would name him Bruce (we had girls though).
Just think of how many epic Bruces there are in the world:
Bruce Lee
Bruce Willis
Bruce Springsteen
Bruce Forsyth
Bruce Grobbelaar
Bruce Wayne
Bruce Banner
Bruce Dickinson
Bruce Jenner (albeit now Caitlyn)

It could be historical, there is a lot of Geordie-diaspora in certain parts of Oz.
It’s very common to keep a surname alive by giving it as first name in the NE.
Robson Green
Jerome Flynn
I sailed with a Robson Walker (hard to say it with putting on a Geordie accent!) and an Armstrong Hale.
Wikipedia says: Jerome Flynn - "Flynn was born in Bromley, Kent (now part of Greater London)"
Wikipedia says: Robson Green - "His father, also named Robson Green, was a miner"

I was trying to illustrate that it may not be council to have a first name that is also a surname.
All the philosophy professors at the university of Woolamallo are called Bruce!

You lost me at Jenner - epic?funny thing is when the Kardashians started dominating the headlines I'd heard of Caitlin Jenner and wondered if she was related to Bruce - little did I know!! And yes 1976 olympics for BJ gives him/her epic status
