59 Years of Doctor Who

Wishing this show a happy 59th anniversary. With a new production team in charge and making some good decisions already, the Diamond Anniversary next year should be a good time. 

In any event, a lot is riding on it, considering how problematic the current ratings are. But I am confident in the skill of Russell T Davies.

Qatar World Cup

Probably won't be watching very much of this at all, except the England games, maybe not even those as the Monday game is at 1pm UK time and I will be in the office. I am in the work sweepstake, but that's supporting charity.

Alas, this isn't the first major sporting event to be held in a dodgy country and it won't be the last. Boycotts have an appeal, but they tend to not actually bring change; that usually comes from within.

So, yeah... let's hope for some good protests.

Remembrance 2022

We are now dealing with another war in Europe, the first for over twenty years, fought over much of the same territory where the World Wars were fought. Millions have become refugees, millions more have suffered.

Please remember them and all those who still suffer from past wars.
