MY DR WHO STORY

Everybody has a story of when and how they were first introduced or stumbled across the British science fiction television show Doctor Who...

....of course, memory is a odd thing....it's organic...and for me it’s a tad fuzzy...but, in among the fuzziness there are also very clear memories that jump out...for example one of the very first memories was in the late 80's or early 90s....I found myself in front of The Sea Devils....I was young and I remember really clearly certain things about it...like Roger Delgado's face and onscreen presence...

...and equally to this, John Pertwee's face and onscreen presence...they were both capable of being smiley and friendly looking and then switching to serious and intimidating...they were strange if you were a kid to watch.......but there was this sort of cheekyness to them too....I remember being captivated by both of them....they had strong eyes....I also remember loving the cliffhangers for Sea Devils...and having to wait a whole week to see the next part....that is how it was being broadcast even though they were repeats.

That whole thing of cliffhangers is gone from modern Who and I feel it was part of what made Doctor Who.....but anyway!

ANGRY BIRDS AND BAD PIGGIES

Wow...I just have my jaw on the floor at how good these games really are. Finnish computer game developer Rovio Entertainment must be one of the best games company's on the go at the moment.

I've been away from the computer games scene for a long time now (about ten years)...but, recently my father bought me a seven inch tablet, and on there, was a free game called Angry Birds Rio....I very much loved playing it...and grew curious to know what else the company had done...I found a review of Bad Piggies on Youtube and it looked good. To my astonishment it was a free download...and is a excellent five star game in both gameplay, sound and graphics (incredibly good music)...the game encourages lateral thinking and the fact they have put it out there for free shows that the Finnish games company is not a greedy one. I would imagine they started it off as a pay per download and then after so many downloads they decided to make it free.

SOMETHING SPECIAL

This is special for me because I've never shown it on Youtube or in HD...it's actually only been rendered out in HD for the first time recently....it was a good feeling though to be able to show it.

COMPLETE REDESIGN OF THE ENDEAVOUR BEDROOM

Here it is. I wanted a far more minimalist look for it.
