  • Probably most useful is Gridfinity for the desk drawers and multiboard for the wall. Not completely sold on multiboard yet - there are so many pieces and options that I haven’t got my head around it yet.

    I printed my credit card wallet which has been ace.

    I really want the stagetop table system to be useful, but I struggle with the print times and volume of parts to print and might wait until I have a faster printer.





  • Managed to go into this without any-trailers/spoilers/etc. Hated the “Children in Need”-esque intro, it felt like the ye-olde cartoon before the movie starts.

    I can understand concerns about this being the second of only three Tennant/Tate episodes, that it’s the anniversary and we want big celebrations and megabucks worth of explosions and monsters and all that. Instead, we get a full episode with the two stars and their talent, no distractions or crawling through attics. PS. Sylvia and Wilf still - and always will - be awesome.

    This was like RDT’s and Moffat’s lovechild, like Midnight and Event Horizon and Alien. Confidently slow-paced with great writing and time for running around, and still having time for a proper ending rather than a magical macguffin arse-pull.

    Properly loved it.


  • As someone else wrote somewhere… RTD’s back, which means the carnival’s back in town. Lots of running about, flashing lights, loud music, a stunt show with exploding things and people shooting at each other, and comedy hi jinks.

    I liked the small things - the time vortex having open areas with multiple paths from 13, the helping/oh-shit-nope-not-helping with the stacking, the psychic paper not keeping up, ‘she’s fine/she’s not fine/been fine’, Sylvia’s “YOU!”, Donna’s ‘WHAT THE HELL!’, the ‘you can’t know your future conversation’ up until they mentioned (again) that Donna dies if she remembers. Didn’t mind the parademons, like the idea of the Sonic having a UI (but hated the shields), loved The Meep even after they got sidelined for the big ending. Console room was kinda meh still, big and bland atm.
