Morning Lusty
It's the early-birds club again!

How are you today? I'm feeling quite chirpy after a great evening last night, but I can feel myself on top of the long slippery slope into the 72%. Damn it.

Were you out with a special friend last night?

I was in bed before 9 last night. Sometimes I'm so rock & roll it hurts!

Morning Spakka. Happy b3ta birthday! :)

and hello No3l

I was indeed
and it's bad. Really bad.

I met my special friend for a quick drink at 6pm. We were booted out at closing time, and there wasn't even any alcohol involved.

I'm a bit over-cautious of stuff like this at the moment, but I got one of those weird scenarios where you spend the entire evening trying to find reasons to pick fault with someone, but not finding anything. *nervouses*

Well I think that's lovely!
But I am a bit of a squishy one when it comes to things like this. If you enjoy someone's company then why stress? It's not like you have to marry them this weekend. do you?
Just have fun and be happy. :)

Hmmmm I seem to be in a very 'share the love' mood this morning.
(

wanderlust, Thu 30 Oct 2008, 8:23, Reply)

I just checked
and I see it's my b3taday in four days. Which is Monday.

Unfortunately I'm unlikely to be around here as I will be away seeing a particular lady for the (slightly offset) weekend and won't be back until Tuesday. But maybe I'll try to log on from hers to say hello.

In the meantime, I'll just have to put up with gross horniness...

*spreads love over wanderlust*

Oops, sorry. I'll wipe it off.

I would come and say hello to London b3tards, but I suspect there will be plenty of opportunities in the future for that, if this relationship continues as I hope it will. Anyway, none of you are offering me two days of rampant lust.

(

wanderlust, Thu 30 Oct 2008, 8:46, Reply)

My way of overcoming "being with a lady" nervousness
is to pretend I don't like her as much as I do (but still liking her). This has actually helped calm my nerves.

@K2k6: Hope things go well with your lady-friend. Is this a saga I've missed coz I'm not on the day-threads much? Anyway, if you are in London,don't forget to give us Londoners a shout.

If I'm with a nice lady that I like I tend to drink far too much (Not that much of a difference then), buy them lots of drinks, and then do something stupid.

It often doesn't work, the last time it did that She said yes, and I haven't seen her since! That was at Easter.

That's the exact reason why I was staying off the alcohol last night. I usually end up drinking too much and making a tit of myself. Seeing I was very keen to impress the particular lady last night, I thought I'd lay off it :)

Why so chirpy? It's good though, we love chirpy.

And ducky, that's so sweet about the lady! Mr VP was trollied when we first met, didn't put me off.

Although the fact that the next time we met he fed me 4 double gin and tonics probably helped the situation.

Thanks for the offer mate. If I plan this right, I should be able to make the Coventry bash and be able to meet Pooflake, however. So, no beer until then, I think. Well, apart from tomorrow that is. If the ex sticks to her promise which is about as likely as uk.gov doing something correct for once.

Ms Crow sent me a rather distressed text message last night with the news. It's a shame - firstly as I thought he was quite good, and secondly: doesn't the Doctor technically have only a few more opportunities to regenerate?

Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Thu 30 Oct 2008, 9:57, Reply)

I'll check with a passing spog
how many times he can regenerate, I think it's 13.

Tennant was number 10 so there will only be another two times. I think they would be able get round it some home.
(

13 sounds about right
And is he the tenth, or are we also counting the radio series in which the Doctor is Paul McGann?

Though the good news is that Russell T Davies is also leaving. (Which will hopefully make the daleks less gay)

Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Thu 30 Oct 2008, 10:05, Reply)

True
The Doctor can only have 12 regenerations, and thus 13 incarnations, so we canm only have another 3 Doctors.

But The Master, at the last count has had 15, as his 13 incarnation was in the Tom Baker era episode 'The Deadly Assassin', so there is a way out. Oh wait, no there isn't, to get more life there would need to be other Time Lords, and they are all dead!
(Herr Doktor Lemminge Is bored, so cheer me up!, Thu 30 Oct 2008, 10:07, Reply)

Let us not forget
That RTD managed to crowbar another Time Lord in to the story last year. So there's always room to grow that way.

Ask Davros, he'll know.

As for the next Doctor? Hmm. Andrew Lincoln?

(bamboozled Can hear you getting fatter, Thu 30 Oct 2008, 10:09, Reply)

a passing spog tells me
that McGann counts as he was in the TV film thingy. However the films don't count.

I'm not sad to see the back of RTD. I have no problem with people being gay (some of my best friends.....) but did there have to be a gay person in EVERY story?

Moffett is now in charge, as the man who wrote Girl in the Fireplace and Blink I think we are in safe hands.

Morning all!
Good morning everyone,

I'm slowly heading to work after my two exciting days away in Gateshead/Durham.

Having decommissioned Sky Sports News' Gateshead network connection and installed the new kit in their new Durham office only to find out that no one thought to tell me that new equipment was also needed at the Newcastle POP.

So having done 600 miles in the last two days I now probably have to go back up there tomorrow :-(

On top of that I managed to get flashed by a speed camera on the way back, having spent most of those 600 doing 95+ on the motorway I got caugt doing 35 in a 30 a mile from home!

How is everyone else today?

In my experience, Russians tend to be quite hostile if you're anything but white.

I was once in a convoy driving through Russia. When we reached the border to enter Russia, they let all of us through without a problem, except for my friend, who they gave the full 3rd-degree border guard treatment to. My friend hails from Trinidad.

All the way through Russia, people were openly hostile towards him. I thought some parts of the UK were bad for racism, but that doesn't compare at all with what I saw in Russia.

Pumpkin? Too new-fangled and American for me. When I was a lad, we carved out swedes (the vegetables, not the people!) for lanterns.

Hard work it was too. They're not soft like pumpkins, but hard, tough vegetables. Character building, that was!

The house used to stink of burnt neep for days if we lit the candle and put the lid on.

Afternoon
That was a quick and efficient London-trip.

*yawns*

I've just had lunch... No money on me today, so I managed to steal some biscuits that were left over from a meeting.
They were far too soft.

Is that a myth?
It'd better not be, or there's some people walking around who aren't really married!

*makes some embarrassing phone calls*

Was it Ross Noble who suggested the idea of Breville Monkey? A monkey with a Breville attached to its leg so you can have a toasted sandwich anywhere, anytime?

Now, I don't agree with animal testing or owt, but surely this is the pinnacle of what modern science can achieve!

I'm in an improv show a week on Sunday.

Would it be bad form to put it in the calendar?

No, really, I hate weddings.
I used to do a lot of bar work.
At weddings.
I hate the false smiles, the people, pouring champagne, the boring speeches, the "we're getting married in a church, even though we're not religious", the drunk flirting, the stupid clothes.
There's nothing that I like about weddings.
