a couple of years ago
someone bought me a build your own tardis out of cardboard kit
the dr who annual
and a box set of dr who novels.

Not the Dr Who BBC missing adventure ones, you understand - no, the ones designed for the 9-13 market.

Ha ha!
I wish they still did the older-range books. Some of them were good.

yes, I miss those too
I had most of the BBC books (except those from 3, 7 & 8) and all the Missing Adventures.

Actually, I say 'had', but I still have them.

I only have a handful.
Couldn't really afford to buy them regularly.

they alternated every month between past dr and 8th dr
so I only had to buy one (almost) every other month.

I have a feeling I will be putting them on ebay next year though.

What really cost me all my money was the Big Finish audio adventures. The CDs are long gone, but I still have copies. must get round to puitting them on my ipod at some point...

Again, I only have three.
But they are very good. More cost... *sigh*

My video collection is looking ripe for a flogging, unfortunately. I've whittled it down as DVDs have replaced certain episodes, but I still have around 50 left.

I just bought Tomb of the Cybermen for £3 in Morrisons
as it was a fucking classic.

Seemed a bit shit in retrospect, however. *sigh*

Remember Sunday mornings on UK Gold? Used to show a whole story every week. My Sundays whenI was single involved Dr Who, followed by Poirot, followed by Jeeves & Wooster. All accompanied by a whole box of frosted shreddies.

Good times, good times...

Good story
let down by some shoddy production values. Much like Warriors of the Deep...

I am hoping to get the 11 doctors figure gift set for Christmas though.
I am a hopeless 9 year old trapped in a 40 year old's body.
