So the Christmas season is in full swing. I am off from work and trying to wonder how to fill my time. Well Christmas came early, in the form of a present from the BBC on Friday night. Of course I was unable to watch the interview then (see previous post) so had to wait […]

Was in Slough this morning, strangely too early even for me. I pulled up at 8am at the Thames Fiat dealership on the Bath Road. Then I decided to walk into town, while my car had a winter service check. Little did I know that the journey was three miles and not the two I […]

Been a roller coaster few days, only now do I feel it is the ideal moment to share both the highs and lows. The week began perhaps badly in the sense I had so much work to catch up on and I knew it would a struggle. On top of this, I was awaiting news […]

Hate to use a worn out line from a fantastic television series in the 1980s, but I will do anyway. I love it when a plan comes together. I had discovered the problem and now needed a solution, a workable solution that I could implement before the weekend. This was pushing the boundaries but I […]

It was a case of third time lucky on Sunday night and in the end it was very much exactly what the Doctor ordered, literally. As a big fan of time travel and all it’s ramifications, the plot appealed greatly but also the quality of the acting to add emotional depth to all of the […]

Thought I had seen all the teen movies that I needed to. Particularly those ranging from the boom period from around 1999 to 2003. I was wrong. Extremely. While watching Match Of The Day, I went over to Radio Times web site to see what was on later. To my surprise there was a late […]
Sunday 22nd October 2006
Just watched the opening two episodes of Torchwood. I must say after all the hype and build up, I feel somewhat disappointed. It was billed as Doctor Who for grown ups, but I expected so much more from Davies. As an opening to a science fiction series, it pushed all the right buttons, there was […]
Sunday 1st October 2006
I had a package that was attempted to be delivered by Royal Mail on Friday morning. I was not expecting anything but as the package was too big to fit through the letterbox, the postman (or woman) left a card and I had to go down to the sorting office in town to collect it. […]

I had come across the title before, while actually searching for material by the Pussycat Dolls. Yet, I decided against downloading the song then. It was strange how the artist did not click with me then, as it does now. When it comes to music, generally speaking it is rare for me to like the […]

Have you noticed how there is nothing on television on Sundays. Even with Sky, there is a limited pool of watchable shows screened. When you consider that realistically I only have the choice of the terrestrial operators when in my room, it is appalling. At least before there was TOTP and Top Gear but not […]
