I can't work it out - you make it sound like a maths equation - then my mind goes blank.
There was a banker bloke in London called Hans Fuchs - and for some obscure reason I thought that there was a boy at CH called Nicholas Sex at the end of the 70's.
Was that true - or had I had too much old holborn or something...

Definitely right - I remember hearing about him when I was at CH and I also saw a book with his name written inside.

We knew some Americans with the surname Sexaur, pronounced just Sex hour.

Absolutely correct, Mary.
I met her twice. Once in the 'corner shop' near her home, Ascot way, and again in a pub after the funeral of Mary Millington, (She, of lads mag fame), who is buried locally to me.
(Not that I'm buried yet. I just live near the church-yard where she is buried !!) The wake was held in what was then my local. She was charming and remembered me from the shop. However, her husband, Alan Lake....... Well, that's another story !

One of my ex-British friends here in Manaus is called Wayne Wright.
Is that funny or just sad?
