Paragraph of the day...

[Gromit]

... From the Daily Telegraph.

// Mrs Oliver, whose other three children are Poppy Honey Rosie, ten, Daisy Boo Pamela, nine, and Buddy Bear Maurice, two, told Gurgle magazine: “They all have more than one name because I couldn’t decide. //

Is she a complete twonk?

[DTCwordfan]

in one word, yes.

[emmie]

no, she just likes children, same as her husband Jamie. You seem to have missed the link..

[Duncer]

Reminds me of the best joke award at this years Edinburgh Festial by Stu Francis.

"They give kids a bad name.........................................
"

[emmie]

some people are never happy unless they are picking others to pieces. Jules and Jamie Oliver seem good parents, so they give their children names you don't like, tough.

[emmie]

and of course she is right.

I would have said they might regret the names once they're 12 or so, but it hasn't held back Peaches Geldof, so what do I know.

Nothing holds back Peaches Geldof.

"Gurgle" magazine?

[emmie]

many people get nicknames, some use other names as they get older, middle names, John often becomes Jack, so the children may use the other names as they get older. Why on earth is this news.

[ludwig]

Poppy, Daisy and Buddy seem fine. Petal's a bit odd though.

It's a strange article for the Telegraph. More like Daily Mail material.

"Maurice!" why not just call the poor kid shirtlifter and be done with it!

[emmie]

was waiting for that, Ludwig, DM not guilty this time

[askyourgran]

Makes a change from the norm or indeed Norman. Good job they don't start using the really old fashioned names ie, Galadriel and Shadrack.

[ludwig]

It is a strange article for the Telegraph though. Change Mail to Mirror if you prefer.

[emmie]

Mike, Maurice Gibb, and he definitely wasn't

[Mick-Talbot]

Does rich and b itch go hand in hand?

[webbo3]

"I think it was the Daily Telegraph that ran a birth announcement which
ran something like: 'Rexshun: to Ann and James, a son Hugh Gee.'"


Dave.

[emmie]

eye

were they rich when they got married, or was it Jamie's hard work that got them where they are now. talk about sour grapes. Your comments are off the scale of rude about people you don't even know.

[emmie]

decided that unless there is something that is interesting in news, then won't be bother.

[spudqueen]

Well as someone who has an unusual name I didn't give my children 'different' names, just good old fashioned ones that people know how to spell (even for my 18th birthday one of my Aunts spelt my name wrong), so there's no-way I would have given my children silly names like the ones above.
