I remember thinking your birthday was coming up and then I completely forgot! Happy belated birthday - hope you had a good one in between being busy with the move!

Yes, meeting him and Matt was a lovely bonus to what was already a great day. We had a nice chat about games and classic TV - I always suspected he'd been inspired by Sapphire and Steel, so it was nice to confirm that! Interesting to hear about the new Darkfall game he's working on, too - sounds lik...

It was a great day! I'd like to go back sometime for more of a look around the place (I didn't make it to the barrows outside town, for instance) but it was lovely to spend time with other fans and hear the cast members' reminiscences.

That's some quite peculiar bacon-shaking!

Congratulations Skeeter - what a little cutie!

Belated Happy Birthday dear Boobie! Sorry it's such a strange mixed one, but the thought of you sitting in a cottage on a remote scottish island listening to 90s Club Anthems makes me smile.
