    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;As you can imagine, given WeaponX&amp;#8217;s expected debut next week, we&amp;#8217;re hanging in the wings and waiting anxiously for the go-signal from the director of the show. So, as a vague distraction, I&amp;#8217;ve put together a form for the &lt;a target="_new" href="https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en_GB&amp;amp;formkey=dGI5RWYxTGg3RHJMcHFENVV1VVc4WEE6MQ#gid=0"&gt;baby pool/sweepstakes&lt;/a&gt; for things like gender, debut, weight and name. And given we haven&amp;#8217;t quite nailed down a name yet, this could be your chance to influence a person for its entire lifetime!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;small&gt;&lt;a target="_new" href="https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en_GB&amp;amp;formkey=dGI5RWYxTGg3RHJMcHFENVV1VVc4WEE6MQ#gid=0"&gt;If you can&amp;#8217;t see the form, then try looking here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have fun!&lt;/p&gt;
