Another name which often causes a lot of bother to many outsiders is ‘Niamh’, and Niamh Fleming has first hand experience of this since she moved over to Birmingham last year to work as a nurse.
Earlier today, a letter was put in her letterbox from her GP and it provided a fair bit of amusement for herself and her housemates.
Don’t worry about it Neeve/Niamh, we’re going to send Niamh Kavanagh over to sort this all out.
