Whilst all of the suggestions sound appealing I would have to say "I like to... getfunky" - of course you knew that all along didn't you

So anyway, I'm off to stick this fork in my face and run a round like a poor relly on the freeway...

Jock because that was the name of my old hunting dog i had for about 10 yrs. And 74 because of year i was born.

Im a loooooser

Was it a toss-up between your current username and "PoxyKingswood" ??????

a call sign during the citizen's band(cb), vhf and ssb days when celfones and the landline weren't wired up between north and south...

After being a mad Lid rider, I went to the Darkside and started standup surfing at the age of 35.

My mates which I surfed with reckoned that I looked like Dancing Elmo on the board so the name stuck.

My surfing was that bad my wife once asked me "who the hell were you waving your arms at out there whenever you caught a wave?"

The same mates are also happy that I have returned to Lid riding, Their wave count may not be as high, but it is safer for all concerned

Thank god for that, I thought you must be short with red hair and that disease that makes your eyes pop out

To tell me apart from Red Pat. Seriously.

Who or what is Red Pat?

He had a really bad cold one day and .....

my namee yo!

Well I wasnt gonna get into my username as it is self explanatory.
But anywho yes the inside of the barrel is refered to as the greenroom.
About 5 or 6 years ago I had a 1970 Kingswood wagon. It was green and my mates called it 'The Greenroom'.
So I applied for license plates GREENROOM.
Now the nickname Greenie has stuck

Red Pat was a rather large chap who took up kiting at the same time I did. We were about the same size, had the same name, same kite, same skill level, but his kite was red.

Sort of runs with industry I am in.
Did a loooong stint in the bush. Few others chucked about at times, red/ginger hair, you know the usual ones 'short fuse, fanta pants,blue and so on, but the one that stuck, is this one ( a handle thrown at me one evening over a shandy or two by a marketing legend, who brags today after all these years that he thought of it and it stuck)
Some who I have met in industry don't even know my real name. Particularly guys from the North Americas, most ask why my old man gave me such a strange name

Greeny, have you seen the cafè in the city near the train station. Named "The Greenroom Café".
I almost took a photo. But i didnt.

No I havent seen that cafe. Ive seen the one in Margaret River.
Some people think Im a musician or actor.
There is also a band called Greenroom.
I had someone offer $2500 for my license plates but said no thanks times it by 4 and you got yourself a deal
