22nd August, 2026: The Russian Flag.
It’s officially the case that a man in need of an Amazon delivery … is going to expect a dog’s dinner!
At least, they are: if that man is me!
Yep: I’ve got some stuff due from Amazon.
And given the mess they’ve made of the last few deliveries?
I’m expecting another one.
A complimentary thing is nice … unless it’s a complimentary cock-up …

On a more serious note?
One of the things I’m expecting is a DVD copy of The Two Doctors: the Colin Baker-era story that sees the Sixth Doctor team up with Pat Troughton’s Second Doctor, and pits the pair against the Sontarans.
Yes, before you ask: I’ve got a 2k version of the story, already.
I’ve bought it for one specific extra.
During Baker’s era, the Dr Who office authorised a pice for the BBC show, Jim’ll Fix It: a show where children’s ‘wishes’ were granted by the presenter.
The late, and very unlamented, Jimmy Savile.
Savile, unfortunately, makes an appearance in the original cut of the sketch.
I’m buying this: because I want that cut.
No: I’m NOT a fan of Savile’s!
And hope that any royalties for his appearance go towards his victims.
I want the cut because, without it, my collection is incomplete.
I’m a completist: what can I tell you … ?
