 :wht13 I first got my nick name at high school in Sydney in the sixties ( I am an older member) when the cartoon series "Top Cat" commenced screening. He was a sharp as a tack Cat who lived in an alley and was always teasing with the local policeman Officer Dibble, but I just got the name because of the initials TC.

Pocket STocker, well I joined OzSToc so that makes me an oz STocker and if you have met me you will realise that I wasn't endowed with height and could indeed fit in your pocket.

So Pocket STocker it is, with a little help from my friends

It's a medical condition, as a para I thought you'd know and be more compassionate.

There you go................................... Doesn't that make you feel better about your weight now? You're just not tall enough.

The main title i have on most forums is Surveywa as I have a Surveying company in Gosnells WA. This however is now going to change to a nickname I have had for many years that my brother in law gave me and it is WOMBAT.   :eek So there it is something to do with eating foliage or it could be short and stout  :grin anyway i will get around to changing the forum details and sending for a shirt. Anyway it is better than numbnuts    :crackup:rofl

G'day fellow STowners...my name's Joe but I felt I had to add the Zen bit (as in Jozen) as any ride on my ST there is an element of being in the zone...nothing else preoccupies me and there is just this moment, the soft purr of the V4 and the scenery just rolling by. Very Zen! Also, I guess it's a reference to the book too...though I don't do my maintenance- know my limits for sure-lol! ;-) :wht11

Thanks Streak and the WA STowners fro the welcome! Once I figure how to get photos from my phone I'll add some photos of me and my 'little gal' (white ST 1300) to my profile. Had a few bikes before...lots of Kwakas, a Honda 250 (got to start somewhere!) and a Trumpy sports bike...but there was always some mysterious attraction to the ST11s and the ST13s. Now a proud owner, I know why!  :wht13

With a last name that has half the alphabet it is just easier to shorten it up so Les Holzheimer went to either Holzie or Mr H.
