Dead ship

Woo hoo! The Blake's 7 season 3 DVDs just arrived. And the little Libby model comes in its own plastic dome.

Wow, though, 'Sarcophagus' like I'll never have seen it before. And 'Rumours'! Season 3 is not my favourite line-up (post Pressure Point season 2), and it has some real stinkers, but it has some of the best episodes, and they're the ones I saw first. So - my favourite season.

Must... resist... urge... to fic...
copracat: Dana and Soolin from Blake's 7 with text 'Some Girls' (rebel girls)

But... why?

Excuses!

:)

Seriously, where the FECK did you get 'em this early?!?

:-D

They came from Sendit.com.

*STABS SENDIT FOR WORKING FROM JERSEY* if I ordered from them, the buggers would get stuck in customs for MONTHS. It's just that I got a note from the postwoman when I came home today saying there was a package waiting for me... *nervous twitch* it could be something else, I s'pose, since I'm expecting something else Potentially Not Fitting Through The Letterbox too, but... AUUUUGh. *chews nails and contemplates caffeination to work up the strength to go to the post office after a tiring day*

Argh!

Go for the caffeination. Always worth getting a parcel.

It's cheaper from play.com, which is where I've ordered it from.

Who also work from Jersey.

*STABS THE BASTARD COMPANIES AGAIN*

I ordered mine from Bensonsworld, who *should* be sending their stuff from the UK. Cheaper than Amazon.co.uk, at any rate, but wonder when they'll arrive... *bites nails and hates companies from dodging taxes by going outside the EU*

Except play.com are complete swine who don't even respond to email to their customer "service". I'd never ever use them again, even if they didn't send stuff from Jersey.

I had a similar experience trying to get a refund off Amazon. I had to threaten to take them to court before they'd give me my money back! Shopping online is the best thing ever until something goes wrong and there's no-one to take your grievance to.

Well, you can write the ideas down on little bits of paper. And scraps of dialogue that will later on leave you scratching your head.

And one day assemble them into a giant mosaic...

Nonsense!
It is your duty to fic.

eep!

I gather they missed the opportunity to include the alternate ending to Rumours of Death with you and Calle in the principal roles.

The fools!

Woo! It's out. *buys*

It's out and it's shiny!

Hmm. Do I go to sendit.com, on the grounds they are really nice people who give me my money back when disks buzz, or not, on the grounds the disks might buzz?

I've always had really good experiences with Sendit.com.
