Saw the logo "Jetpilot" on a singlet, said "ride for life" on the back, thought to myself, I ride fast.....it's like flying a jet (Go the 9).
So bought the singlet, so Jetpilots been my forum name and I have a personalised singlet.

Hello Possums!… there have been some interesting and well thought out user names… and then there are some that were clearly … just .. well.. simple… and I’m sure that’s no refection on the actual users…really!
Now I was in 2 minds about posting this…not about the post, but about your interpretation of it…. just know it’s so not what you think.
Finding a name:
My nick name at school was ‘Jolly’…. which came about from an innocent girls only slumber party and an incident with an air mattress … its a long story and in an attempt to not dig myself a hole I surely wouldnt be able to climb out of -details are being withheld. In any case.. not the sort of name I wanted on here …
So.. Possum… plain and simple… they are Aussie, they are nocturnal, can be noisy and are generally pretty placid unless provoked…and I wouldn’t mind their night vision… for some reason it just popped into my head…

And it bugged me for ages where I knew "Valheru" from after seeing you post on here... I ended up googling it and slapping my forehead going "duh... of course"
Mel is a shortened form of my first name... very creative huh
