Ok. Not exactly Hazel Nut is it.

Has anybody ever been to Cliff Edge?

There was a lad at my school called Richard Head. And another called Daniel Pass. He was a bit slow, so we'd ask him "What's your first name?" "Daniel", "What's your second name?" "Pass", "HAHAHAHA You don't even know your second name!!!".

 

It was hilarious at the time anyway.
