+Bekandian Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Here's a nice light hearted topic for a rainy evening Seems to us that there is a disproportionate amount of Pauls, Bobs/Roberts, Geoffs and Johns in caching. (various spellings). So what is the most common name out there for a cacher? Quote

+Moote Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Milton eeeer just me as far as I am aware, but I am sure that someone will come in and correct me here (they usually do!) Quote
+Mr Nibbler Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 I'm not aware of many other Robins about. But as I could also be called Rob, Bob or Bobby (as my name is a diminuitive of Robert) I probably am in one of the common categories. Quote
+rutson Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 I'm not aware of many other Robins about. I know one more, in the Harrogate area... Quote
+The Hokesters Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Milton eeeer just me as far as I am aware, but I am sure that someone will come in and correct me here (they usually do!) Thank God there's only one! I know there's a couple of me two of us are regular in the chat room but no doubt hundreds more out there. There were seven Simon's in my year at school! Quote
+Simply Paul Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 At the Hallowe'en Cache Bashers Revenge meet in October there were four Pauls in one corner, as if drawn together by some strange force. I guess it's just a name that was popular around the time that all these 30/40 year old Pauls were born. Same thing makes many (most?) cachers work in IT At school I was one of four Pauls and three Smiths in a maths class of 27. Let's just say I'm used to being one of many. SP Quote
