Dear Des - I want to own up!

Dear 'Barby' - bet you love that! Des is a good friend of mine, as indeed of course you are Barby.....Oh dear, wonder if you will appreciate your nickname?

Well Ron, I get called Barbi in work. I much more love what I have been known as since I was born, Babs.  I'm so used to it now after 46 years. Even though some people think it silly for my age! Ah well, that's up to them!
