Guess what arrived in the post today. Hint: "There can be only one".
Okay, so it's kind of hokey, and suffers from terrible early 90's fashion (Tessa's hair gives me near-deadly Saved By The Bell flashbacks, and I'm not even going to start on Richie), but dude! It's Highlander! I haven't seen it in over a decade, but back when we were kids, Johnny and I used to worship this show. Seriously, I think Duncan was one of my first crushes, and I still have a fondness for the name Adrian. I was maybe nine or ten when it was on TV, and I remember it used to be on pretty late (after Melrose Place, which we weren't allowed to watch because of all the Naughty Things going on), but Mum used to let us stay up past our bedtimes once a week so we could watch Highlander. It was a tradition with us - we even had this spazzy dance we did when the theme tune came on. Every week, while Mum was watching (Naughty!) Melrose Place, Johnny and I had our baths and got ready for bed, then Mum would make popcorn on the stove and we'd sit and watch Highlander together, and Mum would say that Duncan looked like a chimp and Johnny and I would get all offended that she had insulted Our Hero; she, being Irish and therefore in league with all things Sick and Wrong, was a Richie fan.
In other news, when testing your apple strudel for a satisfactory level of crispiness, do not push down on it with the back of a tablespoon. I just had half the filling explode in my face. Seriously, it was like bukkake with apple bits.
