I get the impression that the crew are beginning to be wary of Avon's 'old friends'.

Hi people, Are you all well? Hi Tyce All well here. Only marginally less busy. How was Taswegia? Good. Mum has a few medical issues but all manageable. Oh, sorry to hear that your mum has issues but good to know that they are manageable. Are you going back there for Christmas? No she’s coming here. That's nice. We're on the move – to Sydney. Nice is subjective. But anyway….. |

Yet again, noisy heels for 'sneaking' about in someone else's facility.

It's actively snowing here now. A first for my kittens. They've come indoors. Maybe they do have some sense after all. Our Coon cats have always taken themselves outside to look at the rain when it's wet. The 'new' one screamed and yelled when we put her out there. Sheesh! Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Hello everyone. I have just misheard Dayna as saying that she would have to take a spare mac - must be near Obsidian! It's bitterly cold here. We had a little snow on Thursday, but since then the default York option of freezing fog. Still, I got a day's teaching at Easingwold yesterday, which will help to rescue my financial situation a little.  Don't worry: I looked sideways at the episode selection and saw 'Watford' instead of 'Warlord'.Good news about work AnneA. But you're too close to the foggy North Sea there. The one place in Britain where snow isn't forecast, perhaps?I stumbled upon the local football team putting up unexpectedly stiff resistance against a much higher ranked team on TV last night. The combination of fog and floodlights in the stadium was very atmospheric. |

Yet again, noisy heels for 'sneaking' about in someone else's facility. That style of ankle boot was very clicketty-clack. I used to have some – Italian, bought at a black-market town on the Syria-Lebanon border. I would make that heel-dragging noise on purpose. Very purposeful. NOT for tippy-toeing. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

There's going to be a whole generation of Blakes 7 fans coming up who don't know that the door lock in the Zerok vegetable processing plant is the hood for an old payphone. It looks very tacky to me - but might well not to them. |

Christmas with family...for avariety of reasons we always 'do' the family thing on the 24th, so that everyone is free to be with the other in-laws/grandparents/whatever - or even stay home alone - on the Day. Seems to work quite well.

It looks very tacky to me - but might well not to them. The fans on FBook seem to know not a lot. Almost as if it's an entirely different show. Mostly people thinking they're being original and actually 40 years out of date. Lots of haha, not very funny. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I think the set wobbled then, just when I was thinking how good it was. 'WOBBLE' is a WORD I've been waiting for MsVirn.

One steps in Servie's shoes – or not, as the case may be. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I rather like seeing people fall into all the traps I fell into as they watch it for the first time - it shows it can still do it. But that isn't what you mean? |

Making all the mistakes of assuming that right now is the only place and time EVER, instead of recognising that the Past is Another Country and that they did things differently there. In other words, interpreting by their own (often shallow) worldview. There to have fun and make a noise about themselves, rather than about the show. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Whenever I see the aluminium trays in the gold room I am reminded of this: 'Dirty British coaster with a salt-caked smoke stack, Butting through the Channel in the mad March days, With a cargo of Tyne coal, Road-rails, pig-lead, Firewood, iron-ware, and cheap tin trays.' Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.
