  Great to hear we are returning to Cumbria and the DM’s story. Do you imagine the location of Camp Sunshine is nearer to our world location of Center Parks Whinfell Forest or part of RAF Spadeadam? Both would seem to...
• Commented on The coming storm

  Hugh Laurie being in the losing boat race crew is a probable source of Lt George being the last of the Trinity tiddlywinkers in the final episode of Blackadder goes forth. He recounts how all the rest have already copped...
• Commented on Pass or Fail
  I think Prof Peabody is an attempt to depict the capable women who came to the fore in WW2. Figures such as Beatrice Shilling, Hedy Lamar and the many WAAF’s working sector controls in the RAF fighter command. A reaction...

  Dr Who has done this with the Silurians and plans to wake up and restore an hot Earth. In the whoniverse the hot lizard babe is married to her Dr Watson. Their loving relationship seems based on love of violence...
• Commented on Shrinking the world
  Sorry Whitroth but Orchard field suffers from the same problems that Great West aerodrome in London has. While the underground and Blue line were extended into them using these to access the city is a slow uncomfortable process and drops...
• Commented on Shrinking the world
  Back in the days before the plague and I was travelling regularly for work. I would be in France quite often. They were making a better stab at integrated travel than the UK. You could get through ticketing with Air...
• Commented on Minor updates
  Am I being unreasonably optimistic about a Laundryverse rapture as being a way out of Case NIGHTMARE GREEN. Millions are taken up by whatever Elder god they have actually being giving their devotion to. They get whatever awful version of...

• Commented on Crib Sheet: Quantum of Nightmares
  What really protects the Banks children from the consequences of their crimes? Is it the current age of criminal responsibility of 10 years, I think under the Bloody code children could be held responsible at younger ages than that? Is...
• Commented on An AI app walks into a writers room
  As we are here my take on the balloon is that it was a don’t f**k with me warning from China. On examination it will be found to be a heavily warded summoning grid that was not powered up on...

• Commented on Strong and Stable!
  I suggest that many of readers rather than commentators may be from countries of UK. Here 60 miles from OGH there have been poppies on sale at several places and there was an act of remembrance at the memorial this...

• Commented on I can't even
  2 miles of forestry road means I will be staying with my Defender 110 at 25 mpg diesel for the present. Until I can generate sufficient electricity here not by the generator it is not worthwhile charging an EV. Getting...

  Many of the biggest producers already have a power station using the wood waste on site. See the AW Jenkinson site at Lockerbie for example. They use extra large trailers to collect wood waste from harvesting sites as problem is...
• Commented on Abolish the monarchy!
  This or the Dr Who cloning program used on Spaceship UK seems a viable solution. Our more reactionary politicians, I’m looking at you JRM could be swayed by not only a permaqueen but also perpetually about teatime in 1954 in...
• Commented on Abolish the monarchy!
  For Scotland Wind+tidal+batteries+HYDRO can definitely be enough. Is it enough to keep sending power over the border to the South? Well that is Englands problem....

  You are right on all the origin and usage of “vril”. I think one of its latest outings in Iron Sky 2 : The Coming Race may make using it in anything but comedy SF a bit difficult as searches...
• Commented on Quantum of Nightmares: spoiler time!
  I visited Hill House in January it is a wonderfully odd place. The house layout is logical but the details of it kind of surprise you at every turn. You could say the geometry is wrong. From the Penthouse schoolroom,...
• Commented on Quantum of Nightmares: spoiler time!
  I see why it is vague who the skeleton in the dungeon is. As if Rupert had popped out of the dreamlands in the Laundryverse past and is taking the long way round to being Lord of Skaro again it...

  Murderbot is a security droid intended to work in human environments. It is not intended to pass for human. It wants to understand itself not learn to be human. I have only read Saturn’s children recently. Freya is really interesting...
