Walking in a winter wonderland…

…Or not. Excuse me for being different, but I do not like snow. It’s quite nice to look at, but it’s cold, wet and goes a nasty sludgy brown colour after a while. And that colour is AWFUL, darling. Hehe. XD

Anyway, seeing as today was a snow day (second day into the new term, I bet Mr Davidson is loving the British weather right now), I did absolutely nothing. Isn’t that nice? The nice(ish) man from British Gas deigned to grace us with his presence and fix our boiler, which has been broken since Saturday. IN MID-WINTER. Stupid spazzy boiler. We couldn’t even get hot water! :@

However, on the other hand, our Life on Mars box set arrived today. I’ve never actually seen an episode before, but it looked really, really good, so my sister and I persuaded Mum to buy it off Amazon – which was nice of her. XD

Toodles, peoples.

P.S. Like my new nickname? XD

Toodle-ooh, Mr Tennant…

So, after three series and eight specials, David Tennant has left the TARDIS for good (or bad, depending how you look at it). It’s been good, but after so long with an amazing Doctor, how will Doctor Who cope without him? Will Matt Smith ever be able to take up David Tennant’s mantle? Personally, I think so. Have you seen the trailers on the Doctor Who website? It looks AMAZING – and the Weeping Angels are returning. Better pull the sofa away from the wall…

There are just a few things which have been nagging me. I don’t think, personally, that Tennant’s last two episodes were very good. They were slightly confusing, several of the characters were a bit off (the Naismiths, for example, merely served as a function to tie up various strings of the plot) and it was all just a tad vague. The last twenty minutes were weird (with the Doctor visiting his old companions from a while ago) – Martha had somehow ended up marrying Mickey, when she had told us a whole ago that she was marrying a fellow doctor. What I really, really didn’t like about it was that fact that Donna never got to meet the Doctor ever again – but I thought it was quite nice the way that she did get a happy ending in the end. Meh, maybe I expected too much.

And who was the mysterious character only labelled as ‘The Woman’? Was she the Doctor’s mother because of the Doctor’s reaction when he saw her kneeling on the floor, or maybe the White Guardian? (Google it.)

So farewell, Mr Tennant, you’ll definitely be missed.
