Hi Michael, it's actually a mixup of my name (Dave Barr) and was assigned it as a username many years ago. It stuck and have used it ever since. Pronounced “Bar-Dee” - not bard as in Shakespeare 😁

 

[Michael]

not bard as in Shakespeare 😁

That’s where my confusion came from 😅 thought you were just a massive Shakespeare fan. 😛

[..] thought you were just a massive Shakespeare fan. 😛

I have “been known” to enjoy a bit of the bard from time to time. There's also a long story involving Macbeth & I… one day I might get into that 😉

 

[Michael]

long story involving Macbeth & I

omg, did you play the knife in the play?!

I actually played the part of The Real Macbeth, which involves The Bards version by debunking the parts that were 'made up' in a documentary. ⚔️
