• What was your personal first contact with the Star Trek universe?
  While living with my nan and uncle for a short while, complaining how the original series was rubbish (when it came on BBC2 around about teatime and my Uncle John loved it – almost as much as his chips and egg!).
• Which show is your personal favourite?
  I’m not really a fan, and haven’t seen all that many different series, so it’s hard to choose a personal favourite. The series I have most affinity to is the Next Generation, simply because my house mates in the early 90s loved it and played various VHS tapes almost on repeat. I have a particular fondness for TNG because of the memories it evokes, not particularly because of the quality of the show.
• If you could be any one character in any of the shows or movies for a day in that universe who would you want to be??
  I saw a guy called Q who was an absolute dick, but being able to do some of the things he did would keep me amused for every minute of those 24 hours.

No laundry for me today, I cycled 10 miles to see Indiana Jones at the cinema. It was a great bike ride (especially the coming home bit, with the wind at my back; going wasn’t so much fun). The film was predictable to the point of tedious. And went on for about two-and-a-half hours (it felt longer). But, in a weird way, I quite enjoyed it didn’t hate it.
Laundry day tomorrow for me. And housework. I get to clean the bathroom. Yay.

I’ve not pledged for a while. But I’ve not really done much hobby lately (unless you count buying stuff – which I think we did last week, so I’ve actually done loads of hobby). So maybe it’s time to pledge finish painting up my Blood Bowl team? (at least seven of them, to play the new GutterBowl).

Here’s your music:

Big hair? check. Poodle perms? check. On stage smoke and cars on fire? Yep.
Hot blonde girl in skin-tight leather? Awesome guitar riffs? Meaningless lyrics?
Yep. We’re firmly back in the 80s with this one. Enjoy.
