Sorry, I've just had somebody who is part of the fandom (as small as it is) offer to beta it for me. I will have other things in this fandom to get beta'd though, as I've perhaps rather foolishly signed up to do ten things (fic, art, icons etc) and post them one a week through from mid July until mid September (when the 5th book in the series is published.)
Trying to work out where it would be possible to mix up span and spun, as they get used entirely differently nowadays (Modern British English - I can't say whether that's true for US, Australia etc.) Like 'He had the attention span of a goldfish' or 'It spun round like a spinning top' It wouldn't make any sense the other way around. (If it was something historical, then there was the use of span as a past tense version spun - like in the saying 'when Adam delved and Even span, who was then the gentleman?' but I can't think that there would be many historical based fics about spinning)

I would really recommend the books, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_of_London_(novel).
