LeRoy I have the same habit. Will also try not to repeat it again but I don't promise anything. As far as the topic is concerned, I don't care if you use a real name or not. It is the conversation that counts.

Why? Is she a small person? scratch

Dave - we must now both be very carefull here - have stepped into a veritable minefield here - the diiminutive form here actually referred to the female derivative of Rooikat. Shocked

Ah! I always understood the diminutive to mean smaller that the original.
eg appel and the diminutive appeltjie to be a small apple? Shocked

Did not realise it also meant male and female apple! Embarassed

I reckon you are right, but language is not my strong point scratch

Back to the topic; I rather enjoy people with nicks (even though I don't use one), it tells a bit about the person, their hobby, what they look like etc study
