Oh yes, I LOVE that, but do you think they found it in one of the Liberator
storerooms (and what on earth would the Altas want with it? Computerised
picnics?) or grabbed it on special on an early shopping trip that they
talked Fearless Leader into?

Let's see, the brothers from the tents of Goth, Gunn Sar, Bayban's
lantern-jawed sidekick, who else?

Well... we were just mentioning that we don't have any necrophilia stories
yet. <g>

Now there's another good idea. I shall pass it along.

We're now stocking Invasion of the Daleks - the new Big Finish audio with Gareth
Thomas.
I've only had a chance to listen to it once so far, but it struck me a day later
who Kalendorf (Gareth's character) reminds me of. There's something of the
Gauda Prime Blake about him. It's a quality of loss of hope, and cynicism, with
a suspicion that there's a better man lurking behind that if only one could find
him.
I'm looking forward to seeing how the character develops in later CDs in the
series, as I think we're going to learn a lot more about his background.
Invasion of the Daleks has a very period feel to it. The sound effects/voices
all feel like Blake's 7, even though they aren't - little details about how
voices sound on news broadcasts and that kind of thing. It's just some quality
about the way it's been produced - which feels right for a dalek story. It
*should* sound like the seventies even though it's the far future.
I'll write a better review after Nexus is over.
We're also selling 'The New Gods', a Tomorrow People CD (original series with
Tim the computer, not the later remake series). I felt the plot was a bit OTT,
but on the other hand, this seems to fit the style of what I've seen of the
series.
As we've had a couple of requests, we've also decided to try stocking the Big
Finish CDs that don't have B7 cast in them, as well as the ones that do.
As usual, you can buy the above on http://www.hermit.org/Blakes7

PS. Kathryn, I'll be mailing you the Tomorrow People CD. There's going to be
another three CDs in the series.

'Clunky 1980s model' ... yesp, that's him all right :-)
Am now trying very hard not to mentally put together Jarvik*s* 7 ...

Good idea, seeing who it might have to include...

It's sleek. It's sassy. It's eclectic. It's TarrantNostra.com.
Yes, we now have our own domain. Be very afraid!
My techy cohort in crime has gathered in an assortment of web pages and put
them all under one roof. So if you're wondering what happened to the Steven
Pacey Bio, the A/T page, Pat's Fargone site, and the B7 Library, this is
their new home. Construction is still in progress but the site is now open
for business. In honor of the grand opening some new pictures have been
added to the library's photo gallery.

Which lead, eventually, to the image that just confirms that I've had more
than I can take of this financial duties stuff: Vila as Angus Young of
AC/DC. The crew as rock stars, anyone?
Begging for something to take my mind off this image and that which caused
it,

In my morning-befuddled state, one thought breaks through: I'm not sure I'd
want to eat or drink anything out of either, considering what's in them and
where they've been...
