Event - W00! I am teh ~!!hom3less person!

[jack]

I put a holding deposit down on a house today! It's a lovely place, in acrefield drive, just over the river, (between river, elizabeth way and chesterton rd).

All that remains is:

(1) Lots of references to be found and sent in.
(2) Cursing at lots of small and medium admin fees.
(3) What shall we call it?
(4) How shall I celebrate? (I mean now, obviously there'll be a house warming in a month...)

House name

How about 'innominate'?

I've been thinking about it a bit. I think I want something cool and geeky, but not computer or sci-fi geeky, for the benefit of George and Emma. I thought something classical, or at least less obviously sci-fi, and euphonious, might send the right message:

Abulafia
Alexandria
Apocalypse
Chez [some awful pun] (Thank you, Alison, it will NOT be "Chez and Dave")
Mycenae
Lusitania
Trondheim
Vainamoinen

We nearly called ours Elsinore after the 2BE end of our postcode.

Or Dunsinane. Or Burnam. Could work. Our postcode is: CB4 1JP -- maybe after a famous magistrate? :)

I like it. Or maybe 100 Aker Wood or Wolery, so people have to at least read the book to get it.

Out of your suggestions, I like Mycenae and Alexandria, but feel that Apocalypse might be best, especially if you want it to take on the cool status of, say, Oblivion :)

You could call it Lethe...

Much congratulations, anyway - it sounds perfect and very well-located :)

Thanks.

I knew you would. Lethe is good too. I think Emma and George might not like Apocalypse, despite the buffy-ness.
