Hi All.

Just so you're not confused, Sim kindly allowed me to change my user name as 'grantsmb' was a nothing name I got fed up with. So now I'm 'Pertinax'... a gorilla name of course.(much happier :):))
 
I'm gonna call you grantsmb sometimes, so be prepared!!!!

grantsmb was my ebay user name- 'Pertinax' is much more suitable for this forum...:) sorry if it causes confusion but it shouldn't. It normally takes a fortnight to get used to any new situation in life....
 
Yes, he's the oldest male in their group(25 years old) and keeps the younger ones in line. He came from Cologne Zoo with another male Klaus, (who later died at Bristol) Pertinax was born in Stuttgart.
 
A gorilla? Sounds more like a caesar.

"Hail Pertinax! Emperor of Rome!"

The old Jardin Des Plantes Menagerie in Paris used to have(a long time ago) two silverback Gorillas which went by the names Nero and Horatio...

Maybe I should not use my real name as well, I should just puck one out of thin air and use another name instead say like Kevin
 
There was someone on the BBC last year who was an expert in ancient buildings, his first name was Ptomely.
