Explain your name...

[Pastry]

Pastry was my nickname at school because it rhymed with my surname and now nearly 40yrs later, my daughter is called Pastry at school

Not because you like cakes and pies then ?

Stuart

I soooo wanted it to be because you made pies!!!!

:lol: if it’s any consolation I do make a wicked turkey and ham pie

 

[chapeau]

I am a cyclist and always have been. It's a French term which is frequently used by cyclists to indicate respect for another's achievements. By saying "chapeau", which literally means "hat", the rider is doffing his cap to a colleague for a good day's riding.

I’m Maltese born (father British/ RAF) although left Malta 1993 and in uk since 1998.

XEWKA indeed means Thorn as in “Thorn in my side” (also used for fish bone yes).

The car and plate are the response to a very long and painful divorce ....




Ahh, makes sense. I feel your pain. Lovely car and plate.
