thank you for the clarification boxtops dear, your name had me puzzled as the only thing i could come up with was perhaps a liking for cereal, hence boxtops (i know, a very loose connection).
my own nomenclature (?!?) is in fact eth and ron, me being the eth bit, him being the ron bit rather surprisingly. eth and ron were in fact my dear late departed parents real names, although my mum was never known as ethel, but by her middle name. and although i am FAR too young to remember it, there was apparently a radio show with eth and ron in it, starring i believe june whitfield. not sure where the antipodean connection comes in, although i do like a nice chilled ozzy white.
and my split personality? well, i am using the ointment and it seems to be having some effect, although i am still a little raw in places.
