grinder   10 #1110 Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Hi willy. I remember some but not all complimentary, "Stinks" was one for a lad that had a gland problem, Jaz, Space, Wag, Boggy and sniffer, but most were just extensions of their names by adding a "Y" to it. Smithy, Browny,Greeny or "O" Simmo, robbo, Jacko.  Funny how at school most kids were called by their surnames isn't it, like the Army...

Ugliest name we could think of.  Funny tho', because the Nyoka on the screen was actually a beautiful heroin.  ---------- Post added 30-09-2013 at 10:15 ----------  It's a twist = scam, con game, "free" offer.
