Thanks Lucy!

Been a hectic few days, I had a dream about how the Neil Gaiman story would work (running around a large house with an alien that can shapeshift into you, but when you hurt it eg. scratch it's face, it hurts you as well), then had a nightmare about the first 3 S5 episodes (they sucked. Yes I'm aware that the first should be considered the nightmare but I only felt bad after the S5 dream), and then in my exuberence in getting to school yesterday I cracked my head really hard on the car-door frame and ended up with my head on a cushion trying not to be sick or go to sleep. It may be 11:10 at night, but I felt bad for not being on here for ages!

Trying to convince several people to employ me!!

I want a job but my parents want me to wait 'till I'm 15 and yes... I'm not 15 yet.

You want a job? Don't need, want? You're a maniac, but I admire your work ethic! Can you swim reasonably well? Got a pool near you? If so, when you're old enough you could give Lifeguarding a go, it's not as scary as it sounds, is well paid and usually has flexible hours (if you want to do it after school). You don't have to be big or strong to do it either (trust me!).

*reads it back* Wow, I really sound like I've been paid to say that don't I? Have you got any broken or unwanted gold? If so send it to us at Cash4Gold...

I want a job!!!

*flings leaflet in Tang's face* Be a lifeguard!!!

Brrrr, I'm typing this from a Travelodge in Wales (YAY!) and there's next-to no heating in this room. Went to see puppies for potential purchase the day after The Eleventh Hour airs (yes, so I scheduled it around DW, are you really suprised?), they're Bordermans - Half Border Collie, Half Dobes and cute as buttons. Teeny problem though, they were meant to be Balck and Tan, they're not, they seem to be quite nervous little things, and there are only two males to choose from. All of this would be fine had we not already chosen the name - Sundance (to be called 'kid' as well of course). Well these are the most un-sunny puppies you could get. By a freak of nature they've inherited neither the tan muzzle of the Mum (the Dobe) or the white muzzle of the Dad (the B-C) and are entirely, jet black. Except for the paws, (some have white socks) and a splatter of white on the chest (all different so at least they're identifiable).

Now here's where you may be able to help. Names. I haven't a clue what to call him now, I just know I'd like to avoid 'real' names like Tom, Peter and Matt. The patch of white on his chest is like a star (not why I chose him, but probably why Mum did ) and he has small white socks on all four paws if that helps.
We currently have:
Zen (tempting fate? Perhaps)
Brig (short for Brigadier Alistair Gordon Leth- well you get the idea )
Captain (Three guesses who that's short for)
and Dodger (Artful or Jammie depending on situation, but difficult to call quickly)

Any ideas?

The Prof???
Kas (as in the "star system that Gallifrey was in??"

Our dog is Spiker Milo Gallifrey Gryffindor Cyberdog - known as Spike!!!


Smitty?? Eccy (seeing Eccy wore black!!) Moff? (the Moff has black hair).

Thank you, I'll add 'em to the list! I really like Kas, that's definitely near the top.

I love the name Spiker Milo Gallifrey Gryffindor Cyberdog, makes me even more inclined towards Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stuart! Shortened to Brig. Brigsy when he's havin' a fuss!

By the by, why don't you have an avatar Tang? Makes it easy to recognise you, but I have to ask.

I had one on the old one but I just hadn't got round to it here!! Not sure what I want!!

I love Brigsy!! I thought you'd like Kas and its less obvious!!

May be apt!
Nah, you might as well wait for a few weeks I suppose, you'll have thousands of icons to steal then!
