@Shazzbot– interesting points.

Part of me always saw a lot of post Big Bang Who as Moffat world-building, showing a subtly different world since Amy re-booted it. And it seemed right to me, in this new reality, created out of her memories, to have a Big Bad whose greatest power was that of making people forget (a bit like the devil convincing the…[Read more]

@Shazzbot– a theory even more insane than what was actually happening! You win, at least, this corner of the internet! 😉

@ScaryB It was a weird yorkie! here is a better picture http://www.toms-travels.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/22-08-10-024.jpg

I think the picture used for here was very like the one for my Guardian avatar, but it went a bit funny. I’ve learned to love it, and it is, at least, unique!

@Shazzbot– would defiantly like to be there in avatar.

Mine is actually taken from a picture and went a bit weird (they look a little creepy, don’t they?) when I tried to upload it. So if @ScaryB just uses that, that would be fine. It’s a lovely idea, and takes a little bit of the sting of not being able to attend in person away. 🙂

@JimTheFish– I did. They were however banana-toffee dodgers, which part of me finds deeply wrong- yet tasty.

@PhaseShift– again, I did. A couple is like a score, isn’t it? 😉

@Craig– thank you, I am. And since @Bluesqueakpip ‘s feedback was so useful, some of the credit also goes to you for creating this site.

@Timeloop– thank you. I have a bit…[Read more]

Sounds like a good boy! 🙂

@Shazzbot– thank you. Really wish I was going- there’s always next year, right? (I did hear a suggestion of a meet up live blog with pictures of the dogs taking food. I like pictures of dogs, especially when they’re taking food 😉 )

@Bluesqueakpip 😉 defiantly make it all the sweeter!

First assignment for my creative writing course- 89%.

Am opening a tab for @Bluesqueakpip– thank you so much for your help.

@Bluesqueakpip– Thank you. The certificates really matter most. Guilt-free book buying, however, is not to be sneezed at. 😉

@wolfweed– I shall never admit to LOLing.

But that made me grin and giggle at the same time. A lovely feeling. So have a GAG.

No, that’s terrible. Forget I said that.

But thank you!

@Shazzbot– one of the general arts introductory modules- it was a bad line, and a long time before I understood anything of what she was saying.

I got: a £75 book token, a certificate, a heavy dose of smugness and to have a bottle of wine this evening to celebrate. I maintain that is what she told me, I took it that all four were mandatory… 🙂

I just got a phone-call from the OU- I won a prize for the first module I did!

@WhoHar– ah, it wasn’t very coherent. I just had an attack of paranoia for some strange reason. Wasn’t even drinking- maybe that was the problem. Still, better to be paranoid then to appear extremely rude, I suppose…

to clarify- the theory I hope isn’t right and that I didn’t say was a good theory is that the terrible thing the Hurt Doctor did was giving up etc, not @HTPDBDET’s of him being a different ‘doctor’.

@mini-HTPBDETS– I like that theory.

We do know that the idea of ‘self’ for a timelord is somewhat different to that of non-regenerating/reincarnating human beings. When the physical body and personality change, what is the continuation exactly, assuming it is more than memory?

And I think ‘eleven’ said something along the lines of it not being…[Read more]

@Phaseshift– absolutely, and that is what made this forum, from the start, absolutely not the gaggle of Moffat/Smith fans stamping their feet and shutting down any debate that it has, on occasion, been represented as on the Dan Martin blog by (one presumes) non members on a troll.

@HTPBDET‘s posts were always interesting, articulate and thought…[Read more]
