Jasper is one of my middle names. 'Co' are the first two letters of my surname.

Several years ago I used a much more identifiable username for forums and social media sites. Friends and classmates at my school happened to use the same message boards, and saw some embarrassing posts I wrote. So I changed my username, starting with YouTube first - all my choices were already taken, but "TheJasperCo" was suggested by Youtube and it has stuck with me ever since.

Old name for Newhaven thats it really


Location boat alley people from Newhaven should know where that is

Never heard of Boat Alley, but I'm not a local as I've only lived here 13 years, I'm told you're not a local unless you've lived in Newhaven all your life.
Guess- Fort Road??

Guy who used to work for my ex called me Pa. Then when I had the snip, the jaffa came in.

So he called me papajaff and still does.
