Nice one. Yep, I realized who it was once I read "carpet bag." I'm glad you're concentrating on the books rather than the movie, since I had an horrific vision of Giles dancing over the chimneytops of Sunnydale....

Giles, of course, can sing - but capering over chimmney tops? Most undignified. A passionate and dramatic tango, on the other hand ...

Yay!!!! Mary Poppins FTW!!!! And...Oh. *Moneypenny*? Could it be that Mary Poppins' daughter is *Bond*'s Moneypenny, the perfect in every way girl Friday and personal assistant extraordinaire?! Oh, you are a sly one. ^_^

Not her daughter - but possibly her granddaughter. Or even great granddaughter now ...

Moneypenny... Any relation to the Moneypenny from James Bond?

Well, Giles did mention he had cousins ... :-)
Hard to avoid the carpet bag, which was the inspiration for the story. I was challenged to write a tale about Giles and a handbag - this was probably cheating, but it can be hard to argue such details with my muse!
