Used to be Methuselah on a game forum, 'cos I was the oldest one there by a long way.  Then I joined another forum, but there was already a Methuselah there.  I remembered that "Methuselah" was also a champagne bottle size, and opted for another of the same - hence "jereboam".  It's more commonly spelled as "Jeroboam", but I don't care.  I've stuck with the name through several forums now.  I've forgotten my real name... :)

Jeroboam was the first king of the Northern tribes of Israel.  And 4 bottles, before you ask. :)

It's my nickname and also Llanelli folk are known as Turks.  Several versions as to why but most seem to point to the steel and tin industry and the many Turkish ships that used Llanelli docks.
