Blake and his five
(there's not seven - I counted) were scrubbling about in
Cheddar Gorge in this morning's thrilling instalment. Or that is it
looked like Cheddar Gorge to me. Blake said it was Space Planet
Zarkon, but he wasn't fooling me.
Suitably enthralled I set
off to work. I found my day's geo-fix hidden under a dustbin a few
miles outside of Canterbury on the drive in to work, and then I
nearly (but not quite) squealed on a postman. As you drive
along the A28 the speed limit is variable. There are huge signs
showing what that speed limit is; and it is usually substantially
less than the national speed limit. For much of my journey along the
A28 today I had a post van only inches from my rear bumper. Several
times I slowed right down and he backed off, only to start
tail-gating me again. Why do people do this in the work's van? It
really leaves them open to retaliation should I wish to formally
report his dangerous driving.
Oh - and the BBC have
announced the next person to be Doctor Who. I can remember the last
nine times a new Doctor was cast, and on seven of those occasions the
actor was (to me) a completely unknown one. This latest
casting is someone of whom I've never heard before. He might be good;
he might not. However it is traditional for Whovians (and everyone
else) never to like the current actor playing the part. He will
only be truly appreciated once he's stepped down from the role.
For myself I'm only too
happy to see what he makes of it. After all the chap will only be as
good as the scripts he's given. As long as he doesn't try to do a
rather poor impression of David Tennant (like the current one
does) he won't go far wrong.
Alternatively they could
bring back Blake and his seven,,,
Today was one of those
dull days
