I realise it's stupid & childish but 'Poppy' is such a perfect pet name for Alex! I can imagine him now in marigolds & apron, on his kness, cleaning the oven ........

I laughed out aloud when that question was asked & instinctively I knew the correct answer!

<MA>

since ur so excited, go to http://alexsibley.cjb.net theres a sound clip of alex's mum calling him poppy

Oh, dear, he'll never live that down. I wonder if that's why he was in such a foul mood at the end of the task? Bit silly really, to put that on your application form!!
