* Hello, Mum!
† You’re missing David Ajala, then: he’s putting in a very good performance! Oh, did I mention Katy Manning’s on Twitter? And Instagram? Oh, I don’t know if they’re on the US versions … but the UK Dr Who Collection blu-ray box sets have a Behind the Sofa watch-along: Katy is bonkers in them, bless her! (Janet Fielding and Sarah Sutton — Tegan and Nyssa — are the other ones to watch out for: I keep thinking of Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg.)
I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
† Your Facebook, X/Twitter, Blogger, Instagram, TikTok or LinkedIn profile are acceptable. I also like seeing folks webpages.
