I think I'm pretty safe :) In fact, there are definitely only 3 Rushton
Brumbys in the whole world, (me, my son & daughter, hubby is just Brumby),
after all who else would put two such clutzy surnames together? (It seemed
like a good idea at the time...)
I haven't yet come across a match with just one of the surnames either,
closest I ever managed was a friend of a librarian who served me in Canberra
- the friend was Deidre (same spelling which is uncommon for a relatively
uncommon name) and married a Rushton but chose to keep her own surname.
I'm sure there's a half match out there somewhere but I highly doubt she'll
turn up on Lugnet :)
Deidre (The wonderful thing about Tiggers is I'm the only one!)
