I was addressed as: Dr John H Woods The Mighty Rechecki, 75 Acacia Avenue ...

... on a lovely embossed gilt edged card from an expensive Dubai hotel where I had stayed on business.

Couldn't work it out until I recalled we had left in a hurry (due to Uncle Sam starting to bomb Libya) and I had asked the hotel to keep my room if I couldn't get a flight and had to come back ... the guy said "No problem, Sir" and hurriedly hammered on the computer, presumably mistyping "He Might Re check in" after my name.

I may well have posted this story before, sorry if you've heard it :-)
