I’ve put most of my Big Finish CDs and Target novelisations up for sale today. Partly because I want to make some big changes in my life as quickly as possible, partly because I’m not getting much use out of them at the moment, and partly because I’m in one of my occasional “material possessions rot the soul” grooves. I only wrote the ad at 8.10am and I’ve already had offers for the full set of CDs, essentially putting about £250 in my pocket in the space of two and a half hours. Not bad really. Its almost a whore’s wage.

My last day of Hartnell. Awww. I’ve really grown to love his Doctor. Midway through The Smugglers now, and then I’ll do The Tenth Planet this afternoon, probably. I think I might cry.

Nine days until the London trip. Eek.

 

Regards,

Marwood.

Oops, got a bit lax with the blog again. I’ll try and do a few updates over the weekend.

Heading down to London in a week and a half. Really excited, for obvious reasons.

Journal For Plague Lovers is just amazing. A brilliant, brilliant rock record.

Marathon is going fine, nearly at the end of Hartnell’s run. It has become a little more difficult to maintain the pace since I hit the big stretch of mostly-missing episodes. I’ll be very happy when the last CD ejects from the stereo. I also wish I’d been able to do it over a greater length of time, because compressing it in to six months means some companions come and go in the blink of an eye. Ah well.

 

Regards,

Marwood.
