Finished!

First of all, I seem to have finished this fanfic quite a bit earlier than I thought.

So I have two questions:

1. As stated in an earlier post, it’s got the Sixth, Eighth (and Jasper and Stewart), and Ninth Doctors, Jack, and Rose in it. Oh, and now there’s a mention of the Fourth Doctor. As of right now--unless I change or add anything else--it’s at 3276 words. Is anyone willing to give this a beta read? I will definitely be able to send it this evening, once I get an answer for the next question I have.

2. I came to a point where I mentioned Rose was “adding her two cents.” I don’t think it would be called that in the UK--what would she say instead? Adding her two pence?

ETA: Never mind the second point--I finally rewrote it so that I don't have that there at all.

We do say "two cents", but we also say "two pennyworth"...

I had wondered. Thank you!

No problem.

I can't imagine Rose saying either 'two cents' or 'two pennyworth' (I could see Donna or Jackie using the latter) - what's the sentence?

No, it wasn't something she said. It was just something in the narrative before she made a snarky comment. I finally rewrote a bit of it a moment ago, to get rid of the need for something like "two cents" at all.
