Other Half knows me entirely too well. My present consisted of a Tardis Talking Pen (plays a snippet of the theme tune or the Tardis dematerialisation sound), a new LED lamp for my bike, and Marks & Spencer vouchers. Geek toys and an excuse to spend an afternoon in M&S. Utterly perfect.
Speaking of Doctor Who, I enjoyed it. Particularly the bit where we get to see that he may be a good man, but that doesn't stop him being dark and dangerous.
No DVDs in *my* Christmas stocking, so I'll be hitting amazon.co.uk as soon as I have Real Net Access again. I'll start with Season 4 of B7 and the Ecclestone Who boxed set. And maybe the 1975 Legend of Robin Hood. The one with the bath scene beloved of B7 slashfen.
And on a more sombre note -- the Boxing Day post-prandial walk took in the churchyard where Siegfried Sassoon is buried. It's a simple enough headstone, in the middle of a row of such. But he's not forgotten. A small posy of poppies, and half a dozen wooden remembrance markers; five crosses, one star of David.
