Some one on the NWB forum asked how Martin got his forum name, and a member called seb421 correctly posted.

The benny name came from when he was joining the vtr site.
He couldn't think of something to use as his site name at the time and had a packet of B&H to hand so he just used that.
So i thought I'd add the bit extra that we know of, which goes as follows.
Just to add to this, quite a lot of us that have been on the VTR forum for a while also called him Bunny, which he wasn't over keen on.
The story on this is, about 3 years ago at Easter weekend Martin was putting quite a lot of posts up, for a bit of fun the administrator changed the settings so that anyone who wrote Benny automatically changed to Bunny, it was so funny, no matter who posted up it came up as Bunny, for once Martin actually got a bit up tight about it, somewhere you might see a picture of him hanging out of a tent in a bunny rabbit suite, this was while we were camping on a VTR meet at Rhyder.
Well the story goes on, Martin phoned me earlier that week and asked if Sue (my partner) would take his tent down in the van to save him lugging it around on his bike, we agreed to, but unknown to him my partner had bought the rabbit suite and hid it inside his tent, when he arrived at Rhyder that evening, we all gathered round when he got his tent out of the van, he laughed his head off when he unrolled his tent and found it inside, it was really funny, everyone was in stitches, my partner insisted that he put it on, as you can imagine Martin being Martin in the end gave in, put it on and slepted in it all night, in the morning he ended up having the last laugh because it was bloody cold that night and it had kept him nice and warm.
