@BESD1 @Arbutus (& @OsakaHatter)

I think my thoughts on the crack and time passing were simply that

1. They’ve had time to put a plan to contact the Doctor in motion.
2. They had time to both receive information, process it and adjust their actions, responding as they did.

So that does imply some linear passing of time rather than being “…[Read more]

@Arkleseizure – Capaldi is forever going to be Kidneys for me from now on (other than that I’m very confused, and tongue’s completely twisted after 1st go at @OsakaHatter‘s challenge!

😛

@Bluesqueakpip – Also, if it didn’t look like he was starting to regenerate, then his enemies might want a closer look at the body, to make sure they’d…[Read more]

@geoffers
You’re right about the slower pace, it did give it a bit of BG feel. I liked that, although I could still have done with a few more minutes so that a bit of the shoelace-tying could have been a little less frantic. Great notion that the angels only send you into the past if they can see you! A nice tidy explanation for the problematic…[Read more]

@OsakaHatter Yes, that’s the one <whispers “Skynet” very very quietly, oh oops in public on the interwebs>

I think I’m getting to the age when part of me is grateful there are some futures I won’t be around to see.

Oh… not been in here for a while.

We appear to have gone sleazy/casual  ( 😯 @FatManinaBox (nice threads) @Wolfweed (that fur coat looks familiar!))

@OsakaHatter – I see we have our own dedicated barista now.  He volunteered, works all hours, never complains – says he’s here to serve, and has a reference from Winston Churchill. Says the s…[Read more]

@janetteB

Well not every penny fits the slot, especially in a latte vending machine on a motorway services, not that I’m still bitter about that episode,  no not at all 😉

@OsakaHatter

one section of the bar could be stretched to make room for a barista 😉

@ScaryB

no problems we have a spare room lol

@MartyB

I may have lied 😉 or eggsagerated

@OsakaHatter

Given all this talk, is the pub getting closed and replaced with a coffee shop?

No, it’s just taking a tip from the  Australian model, as described by @JanetteB (hi there 🙂 ) and selling (excellent) coffee and cake as well as booze. Which is my excuse for being here at this time in the morning. 😀

@Rob – I may move in with…[Read more]

Our local pub now does coffee and cake. (and repairs bicycles.) Still at least they are pokie free. Most of our pubs have caught that affliction.

Oh and it’s definitely coffee in the morning while I catch up on the news and read through forum news if I have time, then coffee during the day to keep the neurons ticking while I work, then wine in…[Read more]

@FatManInABox

Could very well be our @Shazzbot – she said she was talking to a Graun journalist at the Excel. Got the link to the article?

@TardisBlue *waves back* My pleasure – simply one quick search away. I hope a lot use the opportunity! Haha, I just remembered Marta’s journey around earth to tell everyone to think of the word ‘Doctor’ when the countdown ends. Will be something like that for me personally.

I am doing something similar @TardisBlue. I invited the only friend who…[Read more]

Hope you all have a great time meeting up and I am genuinely sorry to miss it. Looking forward to the post meeting stories and also how your impressions of each other in RL compared to the online perception. Also…[Read more]

@OsakaHatter, @thommck @Magnetite @Steve-Thorp – all avatars received safe and sound, thnx

@Whohar you are completely unpixilated now 🙂

@Miapatrick I’ve no idea what you did when you were uploading, but it’s great. (And agree with you re bonkersness award for @Shazzbot 😉 )

@Shazzbot – we could invent a new drinking game – and have a drink…[Read more]

@OsakaHatter – I think the real problem with that interpretation is that it goes against the way Jenna Coleman reads the line. What she seems to be saying (to me) is that the souffle itself isn’t the spirit of the souffle. There’s no such thing as an ‘ur-souffle’. There’s only the recipe, and it’s the recipe which makes all the souffles.

I agree…[Read more]
