    In the lap of squalor I assure you.
    I'm curious about how your posting will figure once you're living together, if you're not already living together that is... One PC where you're constantly logging in and out so that you're hopefully not posting from the same account, or is it a knife fight if one of you gets too close to the others PC, and even then you're both routing through on the same ip number, which means that your digitized thoughts are like grappling and interlocking in a frenzy trying to squeeze their way out of your house towards the rest of the internet... And do you have to alert the Admin? I'm sure there's no Date and Tell paperwork to be signed, because that would be ridiculous, but if you are two "supposedly" distinct individuals but sharing an ip address then someone in middle management will almost certainly accuse the two of you of being a dual and award yourselves together with a 7 day ban!

    It's a big step.

    Yep, that's the biggest concern; who gets custody of the TrekBBS.

    Have you seen Kramer vs. Kramer recently?

    Just imagine the Trek BBS falling off a jungle gym.

    I think to complete this thread you should send a wedding invitation to Christopher Eccleston.

    Congrats BTW

    Thank you, all of you. Big day isn't while next August (there's a countdown thread in TNZ).

    Sorry for derailing the thread.

    There was no thread derailment, we were talking about wedding invites for folks you work with. This Interwebz analysis stuff is serious work, and we're all your co-workers in that job. You were totally on topic :D

    To un-derail. Don't bother sending an invite to CE. He will refuse to attend, but he will be nice to the little kid guests he runs into on the street. Hey, after all, he's been to a wedding before. Must move on, not look back, not repeat himself.

    That's not necessarily accurate. He's done Heroes, 28 [whichever] Later, and Doctor Who. So clearly he's not opposed to attending different Weddings, he just doesn't want to attend the same one again ;)

    He'll come to the wedding but he won't stay for the reception.

    That's good. One less person to cater for.

    He'll go to the wedding but not your 50th wedding anniversary party.

    We solved the issue of informing the TBBS admin by inviting T'Bonz to the wedding. She'll act guarantor that we are two separate bone fide people sharing the same IP. That's if she comes, of course.

    Actually, given the minor detail of the ocean between us, we might stand a better chance of getting Christopher Eccleston. I am still the owner of the ChristopherEccleston.net domain. Though what if he were to send Barrowman in his place? That'd be a bigger nightmare than the problem with the bridesmaids!

    I guess that might be solved by my choice of wedding gown. Some of the ones I've looked at are so stiff and heavy I swear they can stand up on their own. I think you might stick a sink plunger out of the cleavage and set them to exterminate people. Time for a Bride of Davros fanfic perhaps.

    (and thanks for the congrats, guys)

    To judge by your profile pics, you will have beautiful children. Albeit with a Despicable Me resemblance.

    We're not planning on children. Just lots and lots of minions.

    I was going to add the plan for a Dug but wasn't sure anyone else would know what we mean.
