As for me. Quite simple.

I was noted for my very laid back personaity (until I began my current job!), and was nicknamed laidback. The 66 relates to the year I was born.

Now I think I have a personality more akin to Jaime!  :o

Mine is easy....

My Name is Mark....and I used to own a DTM Calibra Turbo.....

I did originaly choose my 'handle' as 'Mark' but, it got changed back to 'Marks DTM Calib' for 'marketing' reasons!

The make of motorcycle I have owned for over 30 years.

Which reminds me...I promised to restore it (again) when it reached its 50th birthday which is this year.

Until recently, everywhere I've worked I've always been the youngest/new boy. So, always been called the boy. It stuck...

There is no Markjay... it was a mate's email address I used when I registered with V X O N just to ask a quick question (I don't normally give my own work email online), I couldn't think of a handle to make up so I just put in the first thing that came to my mind which was my mate's email address I was using...

I was in a hurry at the time and had no intention of spending any longer than needed on the site other then get the answer to my question (which was did Vx really change the facelift cambelt change interval from 80k to 40k, or was the Vx dealer just fishing for business?). That was a year and a half ago, the rest is history... when OOF was created, I kept the handle because other people that came over from V X O N already knew me by it.
