We had that. Unfortunately, the box broke during a move, and most of the pieces were lost. I did rescue the TARDIS, which now serves a purpose as an ornament.

Can you tell what I bought? This was from a few years ago, but is a pretty extreme example of over-packing products. #environment

This came up in my photo memories from 6 years ago, just before we moved. I rather miss that about Glasgow, the way that these little blue boxes pop up in the most unexpected of places.

I've just been changing a superkingsized duvet cover, which involves me sticking the thing over my head and flapping around like a ghost.
The cat walked in as I was doing this. I think he now needs therapy.

Who are we crediting with the goal that tied up the League title for Liverpool? Diaz for securing the point, Max Allister for putting us ahead, or Salah for the last goal (we should save Spurs blushes for the OG).
On this day in 1990, it was a John Barnes penalty that won the title. #LFC #YNWA

Happy St George’s Day for those that celebrate.
I always thought the story of St George slaying the dragon to be very un-English. Surely they would simply settle their differences over a nice cup of tea?

I'm sad to hear that the actress Jean Marsh has died aged 90. She is probably best known for Upstairs Downstairs, but I watched her in the reconstruction of The Dalek Master Plan a few years ago. She is here with Peter Purves, arguably the most handsome companions that Doctor Who has had?

It's the dog food medal. I awarded one to my whippet during the London Olympics. He could run faster than Usain Bolt anyway.

Is it safe to come out again? I'm rather hoping that the AfD goons have retreated back to their bunker for the time being.

And here is the result in real life. A 17th century copy in Liverpool's Walker art gallery, which was gifted in 1915 when the real thing was stolen.

That's my birthday present! I've just watched "Planet Of Giants". It's odd for a 1964 episode in that I couldn't really fault the effects, but they didn't really make much of the story, inspired by Rachel Carson's Silent Spring. Interesting to see them play with dimensions, though.
