Member Since: April 2008 Posts: 2,797 Send Message	I've changed my name from Eldrick to this... The reason being is that some people were having difficulty in spelling it and kept putting Eldick - missing the 'R' as you can see. Now in order to help those unfortunate souls who couldn't manage the complexities of that, I've made things a bit easier. Now they should have no difficulty in spelling this one...should they...? You can just call me Sprat if it is any easier for you.... :-)

Member Since: April 2008 Posts: 2,797 Send Message	Nah, Hayley does it all the time. Its one of her least cutting versions. It's quite upsetting at times, you know. I mean, So I am taking positive affirmative action and using a name that is clear and concise with no excuse for spelling errors in it.
