I do like to do things in my own way and it was the name of my music company I was running way back in 2004 when I joined BritishExpats.

Re: Your user ID
the joke is told much better in an irish accent after a couple of pints
but ill try
honey competition
english beekeeper
250,000 bees, 20 hives, perfect honey, told his bees are well managed
scot beekeeper
200,000 bees, 15 hives, good honey, told his bees are ok managed
irish beekeeper
1 million bees, 1 hive, ok honey, told his bees are not well-managed at all
replies : **** em, they are only bees!
i.e. someone who gets his job done one way or another
it used to be a code word for us at work that when work needs done or you have to look after some people, irish beekeeper means **** it or them, just get it done
(i knew it wouldnt sound that funny when i told it lol)

It's my username from a well-known UK site that I've been using since 2001. That was a spur of the moment thought but I quite like it. Short and sweet - not at all like me...
