Quite the Shock...
...that I had yesterday on our way home from work. We did some Xmas shopping in STG and took thhe 4.30 train home. Half way home, the train ramms a car!
Apparently a lorry was parked next to the rails and the train hit it as it was accelerating, pulling out of a station.
In other good news, at least as far as my wishlist and present list is concerned, I found the 2005 series of DW at amazon.fr. It doesn't have any extras, but it's only half what the UK edition is. I can't afford to shell out €105 for a DVD box set. That's even more expensive than tha Stargate SG-1 DVDs which are always pretty pricy. Speaking of Stargate, I'm still waiting for Atlantis S2 and SG-1 S9 DVDs. I ordered them from an australian on-line store and they put shipping at 5 - 10 days at the cheapest shipping option. I guess this means that it's Airmail and not ground shipping. The last time I had something ground-shipped from the States, it took 10 weeks to arrive and ended up being held by customs for manual inspection. I had to go to the city to the customs offices to open the parcel personally and sign the release forms after paying the import taxes.
