Loved the Terran Trade Authority books as a kid. The creativity on display and the sense of a story about an entire future being told through them. I checked them out of the school library a LOT. I do wish they were still in print.

I once caught a train from Milton Keynes and Alan Moore was sitting one row away on the other side of the train and this is how I realised I was on the train going in the wrong direction.
Please quote this from the time you didn't interact with someone famous.
I was visiting with family in New Bedford, Massachusetts, at the same time that Mother Theresa was there visiting her Missionaries of Charity. The bishop held a Mass for her at the church where I was baptized. I didn't go.

Catching a train from Bristol Temple Meads, but they shifted the service along the platform because a scene from THE OUTLAWS was being shot where it would usually come in. The scene featured Christopher Walken and Stephen Merchant, but my train came before they shot it so I didn't see either of 'em.

Saw this in the cinema and some guy a few rows back had a high-pitched contagious laugh, and he had the whole cinema laughing with him all the way through the movie.
Rewatched this recently. Will always love this movie.

Galaxy Quest - a perfect movie, just a wonderful love letter to actors, sci-fi, Star Trek in particular, and to fandom - really deserves a proper physical release with decent extras. Think Weaver's right that releasing a R-rated cut would be fun, too.
Sigourney Weaver Says She Wishes DreamWorks Released A Director’s Cut Of ‘Galaxy Quest,’ Reminisces On Sequel That Never Came To Pass
Sigourney Weaver reflected on cult classic Galaxy Quest and how she wishes the sci-fi satire had released an R-rated director's cut.

I rewatched this movie on home video so many times as a kid that I was apparently a bit known for it at school.
I did my first 5 years at one school, moved away, came back five years later for my last two and got asked "Do you still watch Raiders of the Lost Ark every weekend?" 😳

Today's December Comfort Watch: Raiders of the Lost Ark, which is right now as many years from its debut as it is from the movie serials which inspired it. How has age treated Indy, and what, if anything, does he still have to teach us?

I was very fortunate that for a few years, my job required me to occasionally travel to Porto. Love this city and will happily recommend visiting it.

Vanessa was hired to save one girl. Now half of London's underworld wants her dead.
But while she left her old life as a dark enforcer behind, her old skills? Not so much.

I can report that, yes, listening to Word narrate your novel *will* reveal a bunch of typos you missed on the previous seventeen editing passes.
Also, Word will randomly switch narrators on you for a few sentences, and crash out occasionally, which livens up the process.

My parents only made sure I was reading books that were challenging enough. That included a polite but reprimanding letter to a teacher and filling out forms at school libraries to give me access to all shelves. After that they left me to it.
