The Origin of Biggles
By the way, for those who aren't sure where "Biggles" comes from I will explain. The credit has to go to Duncan mostly because he came up with it and used it endlessly along with a half dozen other nicknames. The rest of the credit has to go to the other clowns who used to work with me down at the Kits branch who began to use Biggles after Duncan started to and fully made the name stick. Everyone there had a nickname at one time or another and some have stuck better than others. Out of all the names used for me I decided that Biggles wasn't all that bad. It was kind of fun to say. It also looked great on the work schedule. (although not amusing for everyone, especially those trying to figure out who was actually working)
The full origin goes like this: Rob-Big Rob-BigRob SportsCamperman-BR-Beeee Ahhhhh-BigRob SportsCamperman First Class-and then there were a whole bunch in here I forget and frankly it got pretty ridiculous for a while-Mr. Bigglesworth-Bigglesworth-Biggles
A few nicknames for other members of that group that still get used are pretty good too.
An assortment of those are: Nenbot, Nenberg, Big Chief, Maximus, Balls, Garthis Maximus Coxis...all right, I'll stop there.
