It's a kind of like those misheard lyric things...I have a natural weariness about revealing my real name on the internet, but I can't really explain the story without doing it, and we're all friends here so what the heck....
Whilst introducing myself to someone a few years ago we were going through the usual greetings, "Hi, i'm Tom Illingworth" I said. The lad I was talking to just stared at me with a look of shear horror. "Is something wrong?" I asked, "I'm sorry" said the lad, "did you say your name was Tommy The Muff?". By the time me and all my friends stopped pissing ourselves and managed to explain to the poor lad his mistake he was more than a bit embarrased.
Anyway the nickname stuck from that day forth and it seemed like as good a name as any to use as an online pseudonym.
So it's not 'cos I look like Rosemary West or nuffink.
