1. Everything is good in the Doctor Who world! The 1983 TARDIS team have just recorded three audios, together for the first time since it really was 1983! Neil Gaiman writing
2. Almost everything. Get me presents from here, or I won't like you any more:

Cool stuff starts from page 7. Particularly excited by: the Torchwood SUV, Adric's costume, a God of Ragnarok, THE KANDYMAN, the Rani's time brain, a Vervoid, Kiv and Sil, a Morlok, A CRYON (I've been trying to make a Cryon costume...), ACE's JACKET, Sharaz bloody Jek's facemask, the Malus, several Timelord gowns, Turlough's suit, NIMON, and a motorised Kroll! And that's before you get started on fullscale Daleks and Cybermen.
Probably most wanted is the Lot 159: the Chancellery Guard uniform. Zing! Unfortunately, the smallest item on my list of desires is Nyssa's party mask - estimated at £350-£500. Fail. Maybe I should sub-let my room for a month and sleep on the sofa to save up?
Non Doctor Who fans: read "lots of huge rubbery monster props". But seriously. Niiiiiimon! And Kroll! Kroll was a giant, zeppelin-sized octopus god who was worshipped by Marshmen, and I'm not even kidding. How cool would that be?!
3. Last night, I dreamed that we were in Victorian London trying to find a lodger for our room, but it was a cover up for our true mission: tracking down the Ripper's secret identity! Methinks I need to give my brain a break.
4. Found a fabulous link I want to share with you all, but I can't think of a temptation-free way of posting it with instructions that Calypso not click. Hmmm....I've found someone who reminds me of me, but I am all talk, whereas he is not.
5. Found in the margin of a book. Someone had noted a response to a quote in pencil:
6. Caught someone today using the motto "semper ubi sub ubi". Translation: Always Where Under Where. Think about it for a moment

Did you see the piece last week (in the Sunday Times) about the Sylvester McCoy scriptwriters deliberately setting out to undermine Mrs Thatcher in Dr Who scripts? Actually, I always thought Servilan in B7 was just Mrs T with shorter hair...
