I dunno. I'm really not much of a Wagner fan.

This is 16-year-old Squinky, who some of you may remember; she went on to finish Cubert Badbone, P.I. two short months after the above picture was taken. (They couldn't spell her name properly, though... bastards.)

This weekend I attended a convention called "Britcon" which showed several british sci-fi series - Doctor Who, Red Dwarf, Hyperdrive, Saray Jane Adventures , Torchwood.

After viewing several doctor who episodes both old and new, I wanted to watch the whole season, so I checked up on how much it would cost, and found out that I'd have to pay 950kr - 78£ for the first season. That's almost 200kr-15£ per DVD (5 dvd's) and 73kr-6£ per episode (13). That's an incredible amount for only one season, and I can't afford that!


As a comparison the whole X-Files season one to nine box set costs 2300kr-190£, which equals two and a half (the second season costs 800kr) Doctor Who seasons.

Planning a Shadow of Memories moment jat? Not that I'm an expert but i think it's difficult to find yourself in several pieces (bin liner or no)

Also, have you missed me? I finally managed to got a decent connection in one of the rooms of the hotels. Namely the television room downstairs.
So bored television watchers are looking over your shoulder as you surf here?

And of course we missed you.

Minesweeper fanfiction..
It's always good to get an early answer to these questions.

You said it was a tuba! My innocent belief in everything you say has been shattered.

I see what you're saying though. They haven't got anywhere near spelling Squinky correctly.

But the later series of X-Files aren't worth as much as a good bit of Doctor Who.

Would they sell you the Sarah Jane Adventures one-off?
