For the Camberwick Green fans...

I've just ordered the Trumptonshire trilogy boxed set of Camberwick Green/Trumpton/Chigley, on the grounds that it's not in stock at the moment but it's a good price at 13 quid, and should be back in stock soon. However, the three individual series DVDs *are* in stock at Amazon, and this week are four pounds each, as are the first Clangers DVD, and Ivor the Engine. (The price goes up and down between four and ten, I know not why, check before you buy.)

For the bewildered non-Brits reading this -- classic children's animation from the 60s and 70s, much loved by the age group that is the target demographic for Life On Mars. Which is why there is a Camberwick Green pastiche in one episode of LoM. :-)

Weddings and funerals

Still unpacking after the move. Just found my photos of lonemagpie and sweetheartwhale's wedding at Redemption 01. The pictures brought back memories of a wonderful wedding (and sweetheartwhale looked utterly stunning in her bridal outfit), but a little sadness as well. Best man Michael Sheard is no longer with us, alas. But it's good to have the memories.
