Allons-y!

[ljgeoff]

Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world


Not quite, but you get the picture.

Got Excedrin to take, coffee to drink and a presentation to write.

I just read your fic.. and I have to say I am entranced. I LOVE IT. And I don't even read fic! *crazyface* Ok.. so you HAVE to write more soon or I'll die. No I really will! .....

And this may seem like a very random strange question, but can you explain the meaning of this "allons-y alonzo" thing the Doctor referenced last episode? I've never heard it...

Allons-y is French for "let's go" or "Off we go" --

Here's a really annoying youtube:




I'm really glad that you liked the fic. I'm trying to make it as close to watching a real episode that I can.

More coming soon- sorry, exams are near. I've got 600 wds; 1500 or so to go.

Oh I totally understand the being busy with schoolwork. I've got my own chaotic schedule.. ugh!

Thanks for the explanation! I was scratching my head going.. huh?! What's the 'alonzo' part though? Is it just him playing with words or something?

It's a bit from Army of Ghosts (http://who-transcripts.atspace.com/2006%20Transcripts/12_armyofghosts.htm).

The Doctor twiddles knobs on the console, nattering away to himself.

I like that. 'Allons-y'. I should say 'allons-y' more often. 'Allons-y'. Watch out, Rose Tyler! Allons-y! And then, it would be really brilliant if I met someone called Alonzo. Because then I could say, 'allons-y, Alonzo'! Every time! You're staring at me.
