Explain your @

20 years ago I joined Outpst Gallifrey under the name of Antbert, which was inspired by several of the names of Dilbert characters. *sigh*

Had fun on the forum, mainly avoiding the serious sections, as they were too serious.

Me no bright.

Way back in 2002, when I was first looking for a handle for a forum that's now long gone, a friend of mine (who's sadly long gone as well now) suggested "Doctor Filth" from Dylan's 'Desolation Row'; that was too long for that forum's software, and so DocFilth it was.

Love the look of the first stills from the Sam Mendes Beatles movies! What a cast!

I remember the composite artifacts surrounding ships, especially when we first see all the the Tie Fighters attacking the rebel fleet.
Star Wars: Special Edition was released 29 years ago today - nearly 20 years after the release of the original film.

The Twenty-Two Towers...
Taking daughters to the cinema to see The Two Towers EE tonight. Looking at the runtime I think they may have snuck in some extra towers. #LOTR
Went to see The Fellowship of the Ring (Extended Edition) at the cinema with eldest, who is a big fan of the films. It's her least favourite of the three but we had a good time. Although it's looong and episodic the EE flows better for me and has more room for the worldbuilding to breathe. #LOTR

I went to an exhibition about 10 years ago of old children's tv, with some of the original Ivor animation.

To get the spacing correct for Ivor, they used something like a rotary pin-prick device used to put holes in pastry.

I prefer Captain Sheridan to Commander Sinclair, and it usually takes me a few episodes to get used to Sinclair, but straight in this time. Strange.

The dirty pigeons love a bit of it PARKLIFE
Latest in the long-running Norwich Pigeon saga. I think this might work but I’m worried that the pigeons will find them too chewy, and struggle to open the packets.

The cat is sitting on a chair staring at me, in an attempt to blackmail me into feeding, much like that cat from the meme where the lady is screaming back at it.

I've just moved a box of tissues so he can't see me anymore.

Just up on Netflix, David Suchet's Poirot.

Bought the complete DVD boxset a couple of years ago, but not got round to watching any...

Watching The Battle of the River Plate.

Not seen if for many years, and I don't think I've ever seen it from the start.
