A few things to talk about that have happened recently…

Firstly, last Saturday I went to Hard Rock Calling, the most unfortunately named London ‘festival’ ever. You can read about that here.

I also went to Nobu, the fantastically overpriced but wonderful Japanese restaurant at the Metropolitan Hotel. You can read all about that here.

This weekend, I’ve mostly been playing my beloved Nintendo Wii and anticipating Doctor Who. The Who anticipation wasn’t really worth it since I predicted what was going to happen almost to the letter, but,in usual RTD style, it was a very neat and tidy, emotional finale that ticked all the fangirl boxes while successfully pissing off anyone who wants any kind of scientific backing to support all the ‘wibbly wobbly timey wimey’ stuff.

Ironically, that’s a quote from a Steven Moffat episode.

And then there’s the Wii. Ah, the Wii. I’ve only had it for about a month and already I’m on my third galaxy on Mario Galaxy, I’m halfway through Guitar Hero on hard (that orange fret button will be the end of me) and I’ve just added Lego Indiana Jones and The Sims 2 Castaway to my games collection.

I can’t buy anything else, ever.

I’m a bit concerned I’m not going to like the Lego game. I should probably have tried Star Wars first before throwing away £30 on this, but I think it’ll grow on me. I can always flog it on eBay if I don’t like it, I suppose.

Now I’m just trying to convince myself that buying a Wii fit is a complete waste of money when I have a gym membership I never use.

I keep getting emails from a certain pair of friends relating to Doctor Who. The last one didn’t even have a message body, it just said ‘why isn’t it Saturday yet?!’

It’s finally dawned on me that going to the RSC to see Hamlet in August with the pair of them probably wasn’t the best idea. Now, I’m as big a David Tennant fan as your next hot-blooded, geeky female. But those two take it to another level entirely. There is bouncing involved.

At the RSC at the moment they’re using a smaller, temporary theatre. Mom was there recently to see A Midsummer Night’s Dream and apparently it’s amazing. We’re sat in the third row. For this…

Did I mention Patrick Stewart is also in it? It’s going to be geek city. Mon dieu!
