This is addressed mainly to people who have worked in places where they have come across a lot of customers' surnames: what's the funniest surname you can remember? i remember a Mr Lavatory and also a Mrs Younghusband, when I was working in a call centre.
I was in the doctors waiting room when the rather grumpy receptionist called for Mr Pratt. She got no answer, so kept saying the name over and over again. A young lad and I tried to stifle out giggles until we looked at each other and then fell about laughing.
I used to work for the water company and my boss was called Miss Drinkwater. I also had a letter from the Passport Office the other day apologising for a delay on my new passport signed.... Mr A Tortoise!!!!!!
Hi violetblue , One our cleaners was called mustafa fanny, it was a big joke in our office, we needed some bank details off him the once but noone could ring up without laughing.
