Well that's a ... fun way to wake up

The computer shop called to explain my copy of Windows XP was illegal because there's a sticker that's legally required and it isn't there and they've wiped the drive and can't actually reinstall anything.

!!! !! !

( short version: found the sticker! )

It's past 11 in the morning, I visited the shop past 10 yesterday, so they could reasonably expect me to be awake. And I have been awake repeatedly, got up for deliveries and... hey, yaays, my Big Finish box of CDs has arrived!

Okay, today has turned into Good again :-)

Doctor Who Books: Nuclear Time

11, Amy and Rory.
I was all :-) to see Rory on the cover.
But while I was reading it I had a nagging feeling of Not Proper. It only crystallised once I'd read the whole book:
Needs more Amy.
( Read more... )

The story has Rory making plans and doing things in ways pretty consistent with him on screen. And I like Rory. So that's nice.

But if the story doesn't get Amy right, or more broadly female characters and female companions, then it's not proper Doctor Who.

So even while I kind of liked it, it don't feel proper.



Also, just a note: America again? Really? *raised eyebrow*
