Okay, so I’m over the sport thing from yesterday. Obvoiusly, massive achievement and all that, and I am still having small town pride; but I am now looking on the Wembley trip as a good excuse to go down to London and, y’know, be a tourist!
But more on that closer to the time.
Today I spent all day with my head phones on pretending the world didn’t exist. The family were outside in the sunshine (I know, weird, right?) doing the gardening thing. I have tried in the past, and I tried again today, to see the attraction in digging round in the mud planting flowers and grasses and then pulling out the, sometimes more attractive, weeds. I just don’t understand, and I never will. It just seems like one chore too far.
I have house plants and then I enjoy, mostly because you just have to throw water at them once in a while, and pull off the dead leaves. From the moment the sun comes out, gardens seem to be nothing but trouble and work. No no no to that.
It’s not something to get enthusiastic about unlike a really good TV Show or a movie that gives you butterflies because it’s just soooo goooood.
Speaking of TV Shows that are good… Doctor Who starts again next week! Which gives me a perfect excuse to put this up.

I do love a bit of the Doctor but having grown up in the era of Tom Baker I dearly miss those long, stripy scarves. Perhaps the new doctor could be convinced to wear one for old time’s sake. BTW, very dramatic looking storylines in the coming season. Can’t wait!

Selma - Dramatic storylines mean one good thing -lots of melodramatyic emotions running across David Tennant’s face. Beautiful! I was a Peter Davison girl so part of me is crying out for a cricket jumper! Maybe we should offer to dress David for any future series?!

I was a Sylvester McCoy man myself, but mainly because of the delightful Ace.
I like gardening, although I’m crap at it. Something about a bit of physical work is cleansing, and you get to see results.

Dan - No no no no no gardening here. I’ll do the sitting in the garden and the photographing of garden but not the noun of it!
Ah Tennant - sweet Tennant!
