Careful with that Axe Eugene ~ 1968

When the children were very young they couldn't pronounce Eugene -
our French friend was known - and still is, 25 years later - as Huge End!

I have tried for a while to access the Pink Floyd song title link - unsuccessfully, tonight...

LOL, That's hilarious. I have a colleague called Hugh kept getting called Huge for 6 weeks he spent in Japan. We still say he's big in Japan.
