Buff's Phonetic Alphabet

Howdy folks! Buff Staysail here, Buff by name and Buff by nature.

Well JP was wondering what it was that bugs ol' Buff, and let me tell you that's a long long list. But one thing spring to mind - having to memorise the phonetic alphabet.

I mean it's ok if you know Greek or read Shakespeare (and don't ask JP about that - he's been babbling about the BBC's Hamlet for weeks) - all that nonsense about delta romeos.

When the boats on fire or about to go down you don't want to have to battle to remember what N is. It's a bit like the ethos behind the history book "1066 and all that" which contains all the bits you remember - it should be the first thing that springs to mind.

And the most memorable N internationally is the trainer brand Nike, so why not use that?

From that simple principle here's my new revolutionary alphabet:

Apple
Britney
Coke
Disney
Elton
Facebook
Google
Hotmail
iPhone
Justin
Kylie
London
Madonna
Nike
Obama
Paris
QVC
Rolling
Stones
TV
U2
Virgin
Wiki
Xbox
Youtube
Zip

It's a piece of cake!

So this is Britney U2 Facebook Facebook saying over and out!
