Hi Everyone!
AT HOME:
Sorry there was no update for December,
but not a lot to report. Trip to relatives, horrendous traffic, and a
general hatred of travelling anywhere on a major holiday. A definite
reason to exclaim one is getting too old for this. And January always
seems to be a bit of a bleak month. Illnesses in services have
interfered with our receiving various treatments or tests. And, despite
my vow to not spend more on the garden, various plants await better
weather so that they can go in the ground. There’s also a few more to
come.
FILM/TV:
We’re continuing with a few series, including Doctor Who
originals. So nice to see finally The Web of Fear, Doctor Who, Season 5
with Patrick Troughton as the first book in the spin-off series of
novels featuring Lethbridge-Stewart was The Forgotten Son, written by
Andy Frankham-Allen, which follows on from the yeti invasion by the
great intelligence. A series I was fortunate to write for. Watching the
old shows also made me realise what an excellent book Andy had written
in his unofficial guide: Companions, Fifty Years of Doctor Who
Assistants.
We finally got around to watching The Full Monty series (Disney+), and were pleasantly surprised. We thought it would be good, but it has real social commentary, funny, sad, and serious. Every episode flew by.
WRITING:
I have attempted to write again, somewhat delayed with
one project potentially lost as I can’t find the article whence the idea
sprung. Not as bad as losing actual writing, but a reason to grind
teeth for sure. Nothing to report as I’ll be in the old rewriting phase
for sometime on an existing draft.
Stay happy and healthy!
