Youngest has just informed me of an interesting Squishmallow fact: the highest price she has seen so far for the rare 'Jack the Black Cat' Squishmallow is over £600 pounds minimum bid...!

Errrm, well there are women wearing them in the adds, but I suppose they could fit a man. If you're in the market for one...

Ah yes, Teo and Corrado Fabi, the famed motor-racing drivers from the 80's. I had no idea they'd taken up chess. Yes, astonishing, isn't it? I think it's because they're close personal friends of Fabiano Caruana, the current world number two in chess and holder of the third highest rating in chess history. Probably worth a Google.

Our 'crops' are doing well this year so far.
Runner beans, french beans, sweet pea, sunflowers, and THE MYSTERY SEEDS.
Also done some pruning, some weeding, and clearing for FINALLY digging my pond!
I WILL HAVE AMPHIBIANS IN MY GARDEN!

Or Rodimus Prime could be next if they are doing the main hero of each year in Japan. Hey would you pack it in already?!

There's a lot of possibility with the movie figures for adding articulation. Don't even joke about it.

Bit of an abb crunch going on there in the small robot. Super robot though looks like not enough abb and too much flab.

Not talking about his popularity but simply practicality. Missing Link Optimus Prime is pretty much identical in vehicle mode, robot mode AND transformation sequence (hands tucking in not withstanding). That isn't really feasible with Starscream without significant deviation, which defeats the point of the whole Missing Link. Hence why a Datsun will be likely, there's your easy repaint. I like the way this man's mind works.

Candidates were apparently only finalised last week. Speaking of 'Candidates', I assume you are all glued to the CHESS CANDIDATES TOURNAMENT that's currently on? The tournament to decide who gets to challenge the Chess World Champion? Probably worth a Google.

I've been continuing on with the First Hoop. The Dalek one was good. I like Dodo and Steven. What happened to Vicky? Did I miss something? Toymaker was interesting but annoying in places, that's what the bi-regeneration special was about wasn't it. Gunslingers was good, although the gunfight at the Ok Corral wasn't very accurate. War Machines now- it's got its own fancy title sequence! In fairness I don't think I've seen very many fictional versions of the Gunfight at the OK Corral that were particularly accurate...and I've seen a heck of a lot of versions over the decades! Sadly Vicki's story, where she essentially escapes into nonsense history for...reasons... is mostly missing. I think this is sad, but then - as rather a fan of Vicki and her "lets do more violence", "lets have a revolution!" attitude to time-travel - I would say that wouldn't I? Karl Ah another Gunfight at the (empty lot behind the) OK Corral fanatic! Excellent! It's been a while since I studied it, and I'm sure I haven't seen all representations, but Kevin Costner's would have to be the most accurate from what I remember reading about it, but not perfect obviously.
