    New Name for RP

    Ladies, a change of name for the site has been proposed and I fully agree that this is well worth considering. Enough of the homosexual social event and time for something a bit more positive than 'Rear Party', which doesn't really do justice to the role of the family.

    Home Front was proposed but the URLs are gone. Home Fires is nice but sounds like a stove shop. Something a bit more imaginative?

    The ARRSE model could be used, so deriving some memorable word thing from a random selection of letters from a phrase.

    What do you think?

    Thinking cap on. Scribbling away on the back of a bluey (it's amazing what you find when in the process of moving!) desperately trying to find something to fit an acronym of 'BOOBS'!!! :twisted:

    Well I've had a bit of a think...

    What about:

    Family
    Life
    Under
    Majorly
    Pressurised
    Situations

    or...

    Partners
    And
    Relatives'
    Postings

    or my particular favourite....

    Other
    Halves
    Buddy
    Up
    Giving
    Greatly
    Essential
    Relief
    An education is the gift given to those who think they know it all, by those who actually do!

    ohbugger.co.uk and .com are, amazingly, taken. The site doesn't work but I'm curious what it is.

    Winos is the best so far but also not very positive. Less work needed on ARRSE type labels perhaps. More originality required!

    Re: New Name for RP

    It would be good to have a site that doesn't trigger automatic webpage blockers at work - I can access ARRSE at work, but not RP. My brain is fried after a mad day, so I'm not even going to attempt a witty name now - I'll ponder it a while tomorrow.
    Holy Cow!

    Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away.

    It's probably worth remembering that whatever we suggest needs to be male friendly too - we have a few Dad's and hubbys pop in every now and then too!
    Heaven wont have me, hell is scared I'll take over. Time for the pub!

    On the move this weekend. Not sure yet where I'm going or when I'll get there.....hope theres enough vodka in the car.
