Something About Nothing ... #12

I think The Empty Child is my favorite episode too. I also think it is the most creepy episode, even more so than Blink.

I agree! It's so creepy!! Joe's a big Dr. Who fan- from years ago! It's starting to grow on me! We watched many episodes while we were on vacation with the marathon they had going on!

So, DH and B are all done with the musical now?

That’s when I used to enjoy Dr Who......when it was a proper kids show........Cybermen and Dalek’s were scary as a 6 year old..........

Tom Baker and Jon Pertwee were my favourite docs as a kid.........did enjoy David Tennant though........

But, it’s totally changed from what it was............


Lynne I can see your pictures now.........nice! For some reason they didn’t appear earlier..........glad you’re having fun........love The Mummy!

Just went to make a coffee........we have none. I don’t often fancy a coffee but did tonight..........will get some tomorrow.........along with donuts.........we have no dounuts either...........can’t have the maple bacon donut so regular glazed will have to do...........

Hope everyone’s good..........

Yes, the last show was Saturday night. I think they both will be taking a little break from the stage for a while.

Somewhere I have a picture of myself with Jon Pertwee. My favorite Doctor of the original series is Peter Davison.

That’s cool!!! Jon Pertwee was a good doctor.....he seemed to be a nice man too by all accounts.

Tom Baker came to our School Book Club event when I was at senior school.......I was 12/13 and he did a tv show called The Book Tower at that time which was a fabulous show for kids talking about all sorts of books......he was a real character! We did have pictures taken, but goodness knows what happened to them, long time ago.........he still had his trademark long scarf on then too that he wore as the Dr.

Wasn’t a fan of Peter Davison, but by the time he came along I had just started to outgrow Dr Who. I was more into Wham and Duran Duran........ Trivial fact......Peter Davison’s daughter Georgia Moffett is married to David Tennant.......

Peter was my first Doctor. I didn’t start watching until I was in high school.

How exciting to meet them!!

can’t have the maple bacon donut

Yum! Love that one! Add that to the list of things we didn't do at Universal- didn't go to Voodoo Donuts!! Have to go back soon!

 

[Charade67]

Found it. Not a very good picture though.

 

[pattyw]

Nice picture Charade!!

I should be doing so much, but instead just relaxing watching tv! Oh well- maybe tomorrow! Watching the weather channel- Michael is going to be an intense hurricane! Hope all in the FL panhandle are going to a safe place!

 

[Lynne G]

TinyD, safe thoughts to all, and hope no property damage.

Charade, that picture is so cool, and Schumi’s Dr. Who actor meeting too.

Patty, hope TV is good.

Have a nice night all!

 

[Tgrgrl]

Lynne, we probably walked past each other 10 times today! I was with two other ladies & 5 kids between us so we were those annoying ones who take up most of the walking space from here to there. We had a great day though, only got caught briefly in the two late afternoon quickly-passing downpours.

I have never watched a single episode of Dr. Who so I would be about as much fun to discuss that with as I am about Harry Potter..... I’m just here for the Butterbeer.

Praying for family & friends in the Panhandle.

You missed a dounut!!! Lol.......it’s difficult to fit everything in at times......and time passes so quickly......we didn’t manage a cocktail at Fat Tuesdays......we kept saying oh we’ll do it another night......plenty of time........

Found it. Not a very good picture though.

That is a good picture Charade! He looks very much like his son Sean there.....He was the first Dr I watched, but I was around 7 and he was just changing to Tom Baker who is probably my childhood Dr.......so my favourite...

TinyD, safe thoughts to all, and hope no property damage.

Charade, that picture is so cool, and Schumi’s Dr. Who actor meeting too.

Hope you’re still having a nice time Lynne........when do you go home? I forget when everyone comes and goes this year........

Glad you had nice time at the park.......sounds like you made it before the weather.......



Slept poorly last night........not sure why. Although it was hot and we did open some of the windows.... but, just a restless night......will be tired today I imagine.

Got appointment around lunchtime.........why did I make it at lunchtime! Late lunch today.

It’s to be beautiful today......and fairly warm. 70F and very sunny......will take that in October!

Have a great Wednesday..........

 

[Lynne G]

Happy Wednesday!

Schumi, I leave Friday. Been having a lovely time. Thank you. A shame you did not get a good night’s sleep. Hope you have a better one tonight, and hope your lunch is not too late today.

Sorry I missed ya again Tgrgrl, but glad you enjoyed the parks with friends.

Have a fun filled Wednesday all, and remember the weekend comes more into focus as we get over the hump of today.

 

[Lynne G]

Quick ride before heading to a later opening of SW. Wanna see more fish, then after that, float around rapids.

Gorgeous start to this morning.

 

[pattyw]

Happy Wednesday all!!

Always look forward to Lynne's camel pics! Enjoy your last few park days!!

Sending prayers to all those who will be affected by Michael in the coming days!

Glad you had a nice park day Tgrgrl!!

Nice temps for you Schumi! Same here- nice warm Oct day, but the temps drop dramatically in the next couple of days- highs of 50!!

Have a great day!!

 

[Lynne G]

Penguins, love seeing them, and good AC, LOL

Now ready to see some pets, then soon to get wet. steamy out.

 

[pattyw]

Love penguins!!

Good morning Sans family and Happy Hump Day!

The temperature is all over the place up here. I just don't know how to dress everyday. I am still working on unpacking and laundry. I am taking my time to recover from this trip. Last night open house went great with Liv's teachers. I liked all of them and they had great things to say. We took the teens to Sliders for buy 6 wings get 6 wings free and had some other apps. Today Liv got to stay home because the rest of the school is doing PSAT and the school let's Seniors stay home with parent approval and that they work on college or community stuff. She has been working on scholarships all morning.

I will give the teens a ride to the movies this afternoon they want to see Venom.

I typed up my letter to Cedar Point about the Club level and will send it out. They ask for guest feedback so I wrote a nice letter outlining what we have experienced the last three years. I don't know what they will do with it but I feel better that I gave my feed back.

Thanks for all the wishes of having a good trip!!

I hope everyone in Michael's way stays safe!!!

Lynne Enjoy your last few days and great pics. I can't wait to go to Sea World this summer.

Schumi enjoy your nice temps and hope you sleep better tonight.

Patty Yea we never know what we will find for welcome home gifts but I would miss those gifts if they weren't here LOL! Enjoy your weather today I hear you on the temp change I agree that sometimes they don't see the bigger picture of losing guests. They focus too much on the present.

Tgrgrl Glad you had a good park day

Charade nice pic... and this place not only doesn't have life guards but I don't ever see any staff member coming into check. When I have seen life guards at some other places parents and kids still ignore them.

Mac hope your Dark Side portion is going better and you feel better.

Robo glad you got to see your furry friend on this trip...I totally get how you feel. I felt myself not being the park warrior I once was. I hope you felt good enough to do what you wanted.

to Tink, CKmiles, and to all the family I missed. Have a great afternoon.

 

[schumigirl]

Getting frustrated with our nearest Cinemas........

They haven’t released seats we can book to watch new Halloween movie..........I’m like a stalker to their websites!!

Only 9 days to go till it’s released.

I went to IOA this morning did some rides, shopping and a quick sandwich before noon

Felt good and just wandered around as park not crowded

Came back to room and checked the weather channel for updates

Rain came in and then wind for a good ten minutes and then all over
Went into a drizzle but over now

My guess hhn will be on tonight and bet it will not have crowds

Been a great day for me

Looks like bad weather still by highway 10 in Florida and heading into Georgia later tonight

I am hoping all stay safe that are in the areas where weather is bad

 

[macraven]

Oops
Forgot to say to all the homies!

Bobbie, don’t know what happened to the long post I made to you here
Too long to rewrite .... but know that I hope you recover from your fun trip and laundry/everyday life are doing fine
