Star Wars Day - talk about Sci Fi.

Science Fiction is really my husband's thing rather than mine, but I do like Dr Who and am glad the latest incarnations, the 10th and 11th Doctors are as compelling as my favourite Timelord, Jon Pertwee. I look forward to Peter Capaldi as no.12.

I spotted this Dalek in the window of a charity shop in Wimbledon when it was closed, on the way to a rehearsal one evening. I wrote a note begging it to be reserved for me and not sold in the meantime, promising to come and buy it at the weekend and popped it through the door. The Dalek was waiting for me with my name on it when I arrived to collect it the following Saturday! It was worth the 12 mile round trip!
