That's "Air Commodore" Bourne to you, mate!

Next month, Elizabeth and I, in the company of shelly_rae, will be spending a week and a half in London, house-sitting for fjm. All rather sudden and unexpected, but welcome indeed. Elizabeth has been wanting to get me out on a Big Trip since just after the events of 2009, and I've been uncharacteristically balking (stuff, things), so this was an offer too good to refuse.

On our itinerary is catching the current production of Dr. Faustus at Shakespeare's Globe. Last night we secured our tickets well in advance. (Good thing too, as those tickets are moving like a bat out of Mephistopheles' front door.)  In so doing, we registered a new account at the Globe's website. There we noticed the dropdown list of titles/honorifics you can choose to apply to your name. No big deal, lots of sites have such a list. Yes, they do. Nonetheless, this was their list:


Elizabeth is now, I believe, Countess of Seattle.




Yep, that's Arthur Darvill, Doctor Who's serially deceased "Rory Williams" as Mephistopheles. And may I say, Oh hell yeah.
