We win at the Hockey but I lose at the Plague

[lesbiassparrow]

Long weekend and I should be off doing things and stuff but I have plague.  It is not totally counteracting the greatness of Carolina's win tonight but the shrieks of delight were a bit subdued. And not only do I have plague but I have to clean the flat (guests are probably entitled to have somewhere to sit) and I cannot see X-Men this week as I promised to see it with a friend who is currently away.

Have finished The Five Doctors. I am still of the opinion that 'no....not the mind probe!' is the best line ever in a Who episode.  But Gallifreyean fashion sense is so awful it could very well rip the fabric of space and time.  I'm astonished that both Romanas had excellent taste in clothes (I'd suspect non Gallifreyean mums but that would open a whole new world of looms vs. sex vs Gallifreyeans think too much of themselves to shag non time lords debate). And in other completely unexciting news have ordered a bunch of DVDs including Earthshock (aka the one where Adric dies).  How do I not own that?

Am now watching Robin of Sherwood. Wow, they really liked to put Praed in excessively tight leggings. Which was very kind of them, but I think I did read once that they had a tendency to split in filming as he ran like a deer through the forest and the sun lovingly reflected off his dark hair... Er, sorry got a little carried away there.

And there needs to be more Five/Tegan fic. So I can read it.

And notice how his taste got better after Gallifrey went boom! Well, at least, he put aside his fondness for the eye-blinding primary colours. I like Six but that was not a well-dressed man. Though he'd never get run over in the dark, which was something.

Five was not at all a well-dressed man.

Now Three, there was a man who knew how to wear an Inverness.

But the frilly shirts? Absolutely 100% Gallifreyean.

Men in frilly shirts are hot.

Mmm. Although the tie on the head, and the sunglasses? I think he may be just a bit more serious about what he wears. :D When having the time of his life, he reverts back to old fashions.

Maybe he is mourning?
