A quote by Douglas Adams. If you are keen to breathe, the best plan is to open a window and stick your head in a building.

Indulging my Scottish genes. The walk on the Road to the Isles from Corrour to Rannoch is glorious.

A quote by Douglas Adams for Towel Day. ‘I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.’

Stage door are handing out daffodils this morning. When the blooms are over we’re asked to give them to the dye room. Love that.

"Actors are some of the most driven, courageous people on the face of the earth. They deal with more day-to-day rejection in one year than most people do in a lifetime. Every day, they face the financial challenge of living a freelance lifestyle, the disrespect of people who think they should get real jobs, and their own fear that they'll never work again. Every day, they have to ignore the possibility that the vision they have dedicated their lives to is a pipe dream. With every scene, they stretch themselves, emotionally and physically, risking criticism and judgment. With every passing year, many of them watch as the other people their age achieve the predictable milestones of normal life - the car, the family, the house, the nest egg. Why? Because Actors are willing to give their entire lives to a moment - or that interpretation that will stir the audience's soul. Actors are beings who have tasted life's nectar in that crystal moment when they poured out their creative spirit and touched another's heart. In that instant, they were as close to magic, God, and perfection as anyone could ever be. And in their own hearts, they know that to dedicate oneself to that moment is worth a thousand lifetimes." -David Ackert, LA Times.

Just seen this fab detail in Wheel in Space Ep 3, just before Jamie claims the Doctor’s name is John Smith. @nothinglane.bsky.social do you know of any other delightful on screen references in classic Who?
Control panel in Doctor Who labelled ‘John Smith & Associated’

Central London shut off with gates for the shin dig. I’m pretending I’m in a dystopian political future where Martians have taken over the Palace of Westminster.
