Won't you be adopting Mx to indicate you have no gender-specific preferences?
And remember to spell one and two and use numerals for other numbers 3 and above?
Oh, and don't bother putting spaces before and after dashes.

**** no, none of that bloody malarkey.

Actually, back in the day I was taught to spell 1-9 and use numerals for 10 and above, but that seems to have changed.

Spell zero to twelve, numerals 13+.

Hi,
Always spell the number if it starts a sentence.
e.g.
Six people were walking the track yesterday.

Cheers

Another bit of NCIS trivia, in another episode, Kate wondered what Dr Donald (Ducky) Mallard (David McCallum) looked like when he was young. Gibbs replied "Illya Kuryakin" (Man from U.N.C.L.E). (I can't remember if they showed a pic of him.
