But I actually need it for Wednesday... I'm far more cunning than you realise.
Although the expected arrival date is Thursday-Saturday, so that kind of ruins my cunningness.

But maybe I will die! Anyway, I look forward to good characters for once. And Jason, or whatever he's called.

Depends how complex you want the pun to be. Given the way Japanese names works, there are tons of names that could be used, the simplest of which is just juu (十). Note that 10 is juu, not ju, so jun is unrelated however you spell it, and you can also have other readings of 十 that aren't anything like juu, such as to - for example, akito (昭十) which is bright+ten. There are countless others on top of these - what kind of thing are you looking for?

Did you hear about Magdalen changing the name of their JCR to Gryffindor? Link here if not. Someone pointed out that this makes Cambridge Durmstrang...

Hmm, that's a pity, but bear it in mind for another time... and let me know how the Wellington goes! I think you can always make mushroom wellington and the like for vegetarians, but maybe she wouldn't like that either. Maybe just put chicken in it or something?

I am, albeit separated by several generations... sadly I missed the opportunity to celebrate though, what with not being employed by the water industry and all...

I know, it's terrible. And I've seen Aliens and Alien 3. Every day I vow to watch it soon.

I mainly linked it for the amusing value. But yes, the neogrammarians are cool.

I was of course just giving myself practice at deleting messages. Yes, that's what I was doing...

I'll let you know when the joyous day comes. (the watching of Alien, not the eating of my family)

It's not つ that doubles the following letters, it's small tsu (っ), which is used primarily for this purpose. So つも is not mmo but tsumo - mmo is っも. Incidentally you can only use small tsu after another letter, because in Japanese you can only have double letters in the middle of words. Incidentally sometimes small tsu is placed at the end of utterances, especially in things like manga, but this is a less formal convention and indicates a glottal stop, which occurs at the end of some emphasised utterances in Japanese.
