Named after the greatest comedy character of all time George Costanza, but when registering spelt it wrong, and kept it ever since.

Live in Leigh on sea and support Orient, I am a Leigh O; and I like the fact it sounds like Leo, which is not my name.

What’s yours?
I thought it was a reference to your hooter.

William Tell was a character in 39 episodes 1958/59. I would have been 10. Played by Conrad Phillips. Appeared in multiple films and TV series including Robin Hood. I believe they celebrate him in Switzerland on November 18. Despite being a fictional character
Shame we don't do the same for Robin Hood

As a kid my Dad used to take me to either Green Pond or Brisbane road on a Saturday. The Avenue being walkable from home and we didn't have a car it was usually first choice. Now the team and ground no longer exist it's just a way of keeping the memories of those days alive. Probably doesn't make much sense on an Orient message board but then not a lot makes sense these days.

The reason for my username is self-evident- I am vegan, since the 1980's & an animal rights advocate.
I don't believe in hiding my identity, my real name is John McCarthy & am an exiled O in Cardiff.
So if you see any of my posts on SUFTO & LOSC that you don't like/ like then you know what to do!
