Dedicated with love to [livejournal.com profile] karenmiller and [livejournal.com profile] lizbee: this YouTube link found by [livejournal.com profile] tamnonlinear.

I've finally gotten around to putting Naughty or Nice up on Teaspoon; I'm confident it'll get through the queue rapidly. (ETA: Yup.) I'd put this up too, if I could think of a title. Suggestions welcomed.

You snooze, you lose: while I've been waffling if I have the time to do the Who reviews, or if I'm just in it for the egoboo, the eminently suitable [livejournal.com profile] ponygirl72 skipped the public angst, pitched, and got the job. Serves me and congratulations to her; her first review is excellent.

(Speaking of reviews, I've told RtE I'll stay, but I'm out of books at the moment. Cross your fingers for me, y'all, as I gave a hopefully not-too-late request to get a book I've been waiting to be released.)

No wonder David Tennant was so grumpy about being put in the harness "that hurts your back" for the Tinkerbell Time Lord scene: he's got a bad back. And it's keeping him offstage from Hamlet. I hope he feels better soon.

(And yes, I would be really pissed if I go see it and he's not there. I don't happen to like Hamlet as a play, and really am just going to see him, even though I'm told Gertrude is amazing. I've already seen Patrick Stewart's Maccers, so him doing Shakespeare has no novelty. Shallow Nea is shallow.)

I am in the wrong country to see Captain Jack's stories of Christmas past. Damnit. (And what's with this lock anyway? They didn't lock it for the first two years, so why start punishing the overseas fans now?) Bless the person who put it on YouTube (Seriously, BBC, like you didn't know that would happen in 7 seconds?)

"Jump first. Think later."

Not a bad motto, actually, and if I hadn't been feeling generally stressed, I'd've written the review that evening.

?you'll be able to snigger quietly at me as I whine and bemoan on LJ that I don't have time to write the stupid Big Finish review for Unreality SF

You could always ask for a pinch hitter! ;)

PS - your take on 45 strikes me as being perfectly fair and helpful.

What an excellent suggestion! Consider yourself at the top of the list... in fact, consider yourself the only person *on* the list! :-)

Well, guess what? There has been a "development" at Unreality SF. The other reviewer fell through for some undisclosed reason, and now they're shuffling things around, and they still need someone to tackle the Big Finish back catalogue.

It's not nearly as time-sensitive as the reviews on the new releases... mostly, it's just an as-and-when-you-have-the-time kind of assignment. Dan asked if I wanted to try to do that, as well as the new stuff. I said no, but that I knew the perfect person... ;-)

If you're interested, drop me a note at jwelch at centurytel dot net.
