Given #Apple's rampant profiteering, I'm glad I didn't buy a #Mac recently. Instead, I mildly re-upgraded my very old second hand PC for gaming and video editing. Yes, I'm finally uploading new content to YouTube this year. Unlike #CRRRRS pod, it's not going to be #SFFH, but other things from my life you may find entertaining.
I'm always on the lookout for secondhand #books. This time I managed to buy #RichardAdam's #WatershipDown sequel, #TalesfromWatershipDown, for Mum. She's a superfan of the original 1978 film and 1972 novel. Right after taking me to see the film in '78, she bought the tie-in paperback edition and read it obcessively on the bus to work. We didn't know about the sequel (or perhaps had forgotten it existed), so we're very happy with this first edition hardback.
I'm one episode into my #DoctorWho: #TheCurseofFenric #revisit. #JohnCarpenter's #TheFog, right?

I'll be tackling #TheCurseofFenric next in my ongoing chronological classic #DoctorWho #revisit.

Captain Roy's Rusty Rocket Radio Show (#CRRRRS): THE #UK #Geek #ScienceFiction, #Fantasy, #Horror & #DoctorWho #Podcast (https://roymathur.com/podcast.html) has visited #MiltonKeynes #Collectormania day 1/3. I gave out 3 promo keyrings and had a nice #geeky chat with lightsaber lady, Cardboard Colin, and Sean. #CollectormaniaMK @Showmasters
#ChristopherEccleston was a great #DoctorWho.
That sounds like great riding #weather to me! I'll be out every day on my teeny #motorcycle. #Vroom!

Only weeks to go before the Beeb close down #Radio4 on #LongWave. I'm making the most of #Droitwich until then.

Stand by, #Whovians, for #CRRRRS #UK #SFFH #Podcast's revisit of #DoctorWho: #GhostLight. I'm really looking forward to it, as it's been about a month since #Battlefield. I'm also excited, with only a teeny bit of #OldWho remaining to cover, after so many years of this madness!
Apart from the multiple shop closures, #potholes, and some traffic lights blind to motorcycles, here are some more local annoyances about #MiltonKeynes. My gift to #MK councillors and MPs. Enjoy. 1/4
