TV Show Challenge Day 11

Following on from the 90s theme of yesterday, today is all about the noughties. This one is easy. Whilst the show began in the 90s, it was in the 00s where it truly came alive and where I came to properly appreciate it. Stargate SG1 is a rare thing. There are very few shows where […]

TV Show Challenge Day 10

The 10th Challenge is a show from the 90s. I consider myself a child of the 90s and 90s telly influenced me more than the shows of any other era. Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles has already come up as a show I liked, as did Gargoyles, and Deep Space Nine. What though, for me, really […]

Great bursts of flame could be seen clearly, even as […]

Customer Fail

Customer: I had this product in my possession for well over two years, but didn’t go to fit it until recently, and it won’t fit properly because of a fault. Why won’t you give me a new one (or the means to get one that will fit, given this product is now discontinued)? Me: Well, as […]

TV Show Challenge Day 8

TV Show best friend… Hmm. Not straight-forward. Not at all. I guess it comes down to who you relate to, and who you’d most like to go to the pub with. Who’s going to be full of witty anecdotes and clever puns? Well, obviously me, but who would I share them with? This is tough. […]
