Being a committed fellow socialist Barry believes in sharing things, names is just one of those things. [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

ROTFL at some of the posts here....
Mouse, I think Barry mentioned he got his name from that author, so I assume the character Barry The Sprout is also in one of his earlier books. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I would especially like to thank Xen for this suggestion. It did make sense, mate, it was just funny to read.
As for Bazza, we await his arrival with baited breath... |

Hmmm...I think that there is a very good chance of Barry being the Author.
Ziroc, can you please tell the ignorant person (me in short), what famous people are listed here, that you know of?

Na... They get hounded enough in real life. If they want to remain anonymous, so be it.
If I went against that, they would leave. I respect their privacy. [img]smile.gif[/img] |

I believe Robert Rankin first mentioned the name "Barry the Sprout" in an interview at The Octagon in Dublin on the 9th October 1999. He stated that BTS was to appear in a Lazlo Woodbine thriller.
On the question of famous authors on IW I can inform you that I have written several books under the pseudonym of JK Rowling!
