The Doc is Back

So the mysterious Time Lord known as The Doctor has returned to our screens after what has felt like an age. Capaldi’s first full appearance treated us to the usual post-regeneration fare of a confused and disorientated Doctor trying to remember who he is, whilst Clara tries to adapt to this radically changed man (especially […]

My Daughter the Artist!

Last night I’m sitting on the sofa and my little girl is sitting in front of her little art station, merrily drawing away on her paper. I need to get her to draw daddy, then get that drawing as a tattoo!

Send in the Guardians!

I have rarely enjoyed a film as much as I enjoyed Guardians of the Galaxy tonight. From the funny little dance we get from Quill at the start of the film, to his funky moves at the end, this film keeps things refreshingly light and yet also manages to offer up real heart. You warm […]

So, earlier today I took the Ice Bucket Challenge for the MacMillan Cancer Support charity. Some of you have probably seen the challenges and videos going around the web in respect of the ALS charity (a worthy cause to be sure), but for me, MacMillan is the cause I want to support. I hope that […]

Some Welcome Feedback

I recently advertised (for lack of a better word) my site on the forums at StarfleetJedi, and I would like to thank Mike DiCenso for his feedback thus far on my ‘versus’ pages. I hope to address his feedback at some stage in the not-so-distant future. It’s always nice to hear from people about how […]

Thieving Little…

So there I am, thinking to myself as the working day slowly draws to a close, that the day has gone well, that the store will be tidy and that everything is upstraight. I could not have been more wrong. Having been rocked by the news that a thoroughly nice man I knew had died, […]

Sad News

This morning I received a tearful phone call from the wife of a man I knew, via work, for the past five years, informing me that this gentleman had passed away. I was stunned, and saddened, to learn of his passing. I can’t claim to have known him thoroughly, as I knew him mostly via […]
