As the drunkenness progressed week after week, we started to notice how we all carried ourselves in "Da Shed" and each other's dartboard abilities. The one who usually picked up on the minor details of everyone's actions was Mike Duggan. As a result he came up with three of the four Shedmen's nicknames that were mentioned above. Here is how each one came about.
Bulls Eye Barns (Mark Barrington).
First me nickname was barns it originated in high school. There was a guy that I went to school with named Mark Barns, he wasn't the brightest crayon in the box and every time I"d say something stupid, which was a lot, one of my friends would make the comment "yes by Mark Barnssssss". Over time it was shortened to just Barns, and the name stuck. Now that is what all my friends call me. The Bulls Eye was incorporated by the shedmen. When playing darts, to see who goes first each player gets one shot at the bulls eye, whoever comes closest starts the game. We call it diddle for the middle. Every time I diddle for the middle, I don't come close to the bulls eye and usually the person playing with me starts the game of darts. Bulls Bye Barnes came about because after I"d shot for the bulls, Duggan always says "no your suppose to aim for the bulls eye, barns." Then the other two boys started in on me, every time someone handed me the darts either to diddle for the middle or just playing 501's they"d say "come on go for the bulls eye barns", after a while they"d just started calling me "Bulls Eye Barns". The only ones who call me this are the three other shedmen, and they usually only call me Bulls Eye Barns when were playing darts or hanging out in the shed.
Fat Fingers Farrell (Mike Farrell).
Mike is another one of Da Shedmen, His nickname also comes from our pass time of playing darts. When playing darts Mike would always pick up a screwdriver or nail to put into the rotary dials on the scoreboard, when changing his score.
