    I already have my childrens names chosen (sorry potential future wifey). They are Florence, Dinny, Rory, Emmett and Renard. I don't particularly care whether they're boys or girls

    I've been feeling very broody lately :/

    I've a student in a class I teach here in Madrid called Mercedes...her name is Mercedes Colorado....was that much away from telling her she sounded like a pornstar but didn't think it'd go down to well...she's a civil servant in the tax office.

    Girl's name I like....Lola and Naoise and for fella's Taidhg or Alfonso.
