I use the "hard G" and say "regg-ecks" and "regg-ecksp" (and don't have 
appreciable difficulty with the form ending in -p).

However, I usually only use those words when reading something written 
by someone who prefers the abbreviation. I think I usually use the 
expanded form "regular expression" when I'm talking.

 Cheers,
Philip

That sounds like an excellent plan, with almost no drawbacks.
what would the drawbacks be?

However, since my budget is kinda limited I would appreciate if 
someone
would be kind to have a spare sofa I could crash on for a couple of
nights.
Okay, what nights were you thinking and I'll prod people if no-one 
steps
forward?  Remember that most of us won't be back from Paris until the 
end
of the weekend.
I'm not really sure, I was planning on going from paris on the 26:th, 
but I'll probablly stay an extra day.

However, I'm going to hang out with a non-Perlish friend of mine for a 
couple of days to start with, but I can only stay with him during those 
days. So I think it'll be somewhere between 30th of july and maybe 
2nd/3rd of august.
