Saw Star Wars, like everyone else. I guess I enjoyed it? I'm REALLY not a Star Wars person - I remember falling asleep when I was taken to see the first one many years ago, and since then onscreen deserts always make me sleepy. Not even kidding *g*. There was a kid, some robots, a hologrammatic projection (help me Obi-Wan, you're my only hope!), ( Read more... )

Wow, it's been... weeks. I blame Christmas. And planning to move (again). And trying to write fic outside my normal sphere (aka PWP) which is like pulling teeth. Porn is easy. Plot is haaarrrd *g*

Listened to the first half of the last Cabin Pressure ep this morning. I'm not sad, exactly, but as I was saying to indybaggins, it kind of feels like the end of ( Read more... )

Cabin Pressure is back! And for those of you odd people who maybe rather quite like it but whose lives don't revolve around fangirling BC (what is wrong with you...), it's available to listen to worldwide for the next 7 days at the BBC site here.

Review of sorts: ( Timbuktu )

1. I finished reading Frankenstein. Weirdly, it was pretty much exactly what I expected - my only real exposure to the story apart from, you know, pop culture images, is from seeing Branagh's movie when it originally came out, which is mostly told from Victor's perspective, and then more recently the National Theatre filmed production, which leans ( Read more... )

Not long after I became a fan, I swore that one day I would vid Cabin Pressure. Yes, I know. Challenging. But rationality has never stopped me before!

So, accordingly - have a Cabin Pressure vid. Without the moving pictures. Or anything in the way of lyrics. Or indeed, music. Actually, it's more of a badly mutilated sound file paired with a static ( Read more... )

For those not on the cabin_pressure comm - I don't even wear T-shirts (because a high rounded collar with short sleeves is possibly the most unflattering look ever on me *g*) but I may still have bought this (designed by northerlywinde). Because it's lovely. It's only available today and tomorrow (slightly cheaper today than tomorrow):

Haven't written much fic lately and am a bit nervous about the larger fandoms, particularly Sherlock, so I'm just going to leave this here for a day or two while I contemplate them. If you should happen to notice I've really screwed something up, please do let me know *g*

Went to see Yes, Prime Minister yesterday, with the lovely-but-sadly-non-singing Philip Quast as Sir Humphrey. Granted, I've never seen the TV show, but I figured a cult British comedy would at least spawn an entertaining stage production featuring all the elements that demonstrated its original appeal. It was dismal. I can only gather that someone ( Read more... )

Two words: CABIN PRESSURE

What is it? A BBC radio series. Yes, I know. I was astonished to discover they still existed actually. Someone should tell them we have pictures now.

Why on earth would I want to listen to it? Look, I feel your pain. I am not an 'audio' person. I loathe audio books and will not listen to them; I don't care who's ( Read more... )
