Oh, I love this! I love all the different ways you have Harry losing his shoes and how you get Benny in it and Harry's reaction to the Eighth Doctor and Harry ending up being famous and all the things in the Doctor's pockets, and well, everything really.

Although one small Britpick, which I know you can't fix here, but jump rope should be skipping rope.

I just had to say how much your icon made me grin. Harry Sullivan and Harry Pearce on the same icon? Marvellous!! It must be a good name! (You, too, Famous Harry, but no one compares to the other two.) :-D

Yay! Oh, I'm so glad you enjoyed this, and I shall fix the skipping rope when I post elsewhere. And can I just say--BEST PROMPT EVER. Seriously, as soon as I saw it, I knew exactly which I was going to write.

lovely. particularly the ending, which works beautifully (luke thinks harry is a good role model) and the doctor not wanting to give up his twine, but also in general. why would seven not say hello though? what a bastard.

Seven had some deep purpose in not saying hello. Either that, or he was embarrassed. It's hard to tell with Seven.

I'm glad you enjoyed it, though. :)

Oh, lovely. What a great piece of work.

(You know, Harry and Barbara should meet up and discuss whether it's worse to lose your cardi or your shoes...)

Thank you!

(Actually, I considered having Harry run into Barbara instead of Benny...)
