Champagne, to celebrate. Though I just bought some today, so if I become a multi-millionaire by tomorrow morning I would be able to open one of those to celebrate. I’d buy a house, probably, and a flat for my brother.

I used to want to call her Emma, but that’s now one of teh most popular girls’ names in Norway, so that’s out. I have a few ideas, but I’m not going to say them out loud in case people somehow listen to me and I suddenly find they’re on the top ten.

See a, except I used to want to call him Martin, but that’s now off because I plan on calling the father Martin…

I have. Whether I would again rather depends on where abroad.
