If you could keep the pen exactly that distance away and have it here, the pen would fit inside the box.

Using my Micro scooter with my (heavy) laptop in a rucksack on my back. Hit a bump, went flying and landed on my hand with enough force to bend my glasses out of shape. The hinge went into my forehead and the frames almost sliced my ear off. Spent the morning in A&E having my ear stitched together!

Let's open door number 14 of the Scarred For Life advent calendar... and it's perfect Christmas telly in the form of the deeply creepy title sequence for the BBC's 1976 adaptation of Hans Christian Anderson's THE SNOW QUEEN!

I've done something similar en route to Venice, but it was the middle of March so it was pitch black when we crossed the Alps! I got some great views on the Milan to Geneva Eurocity train coming back, though.

Could be interesting for getting to Sicily!

I seem to recall that the Empress of Mars was going to have a line about Peladon taking back control but it never made it to screen.

I'm surprised that someone hasn't done London to Paris in 4 minutes yet! Or even 3 1/2.

Maybe the conspiracy theories about him dying were true after all...

It's like a sort of half-Vulcan half-Sensorite cross-breed...

That could so easily be Frobisher cosplaying the various Doctors!
