lovely, lovely memes

For icons! From fahrbotdrusilla:

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee.
(icon credits can be found on my icon page thing.)



Cheap lols! Instead of Chruchhill calling the TARDIS phone, it's this other bloke called Saxon who's really the Master who's the Doctor's ex-boyfriend. Obv, I want this fic. It does not exist because fandom does not pander to me constantly. Alas. Also, it has pretty colours.

I would also have accepted Harriet Jones but that would have been more emo and less slashy.



One of a fabulous series of Romana/Eight icons by nextjuly. She looks at him with Judgieness, thus I am pleased. Obv I ship Eight/Romana as I ship all Doctors/Romanas. Also both Shadas are canon.



This is my Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart Is Cooler Than You icon. Because he is. Look at him with his swagger and sunglasses and knowledge that bullets may do sod all but he's damn well going to save the world anyway. Oh yes.



Mostly I think this is a beautiful icon. The colours are so bright, the image is sharp and clean and it's a very nice crop. Also, I am like quite fond of this show called Farscape and this is from a fourth season ep that I can't remember the name of but I find it awfully fun.



This is Doctor Elizabeth Shaw. She spent her first day at UNIT being patronised and then saving the world by fixing some alien tech while the Doctor was busy gurning as an unconvincing alien octopus tried to strangle him. Mostly she is to be blamed for me doing sixth year chemistry. And here she is happy and smiley and beautiful. I spent ages looking for a happy!LizShaw icon and was most pleased when I came across this one.



Another very yayful icon! Uhura is awesome, obv, and here she has A TRIBBLE. Which will be NO TRIBBLE AT ALL. Lols. It's from a lovely scene in a lovely episode that never fails to cheer me, either the TOS one or the DS9 remix.

This is probably my happiest icon.

And another one:

Day 02 - A show that you wish more people were watching

Legend of the Seeker, because then there might not be only two episodes left because it's bloody well gone and been cancelled. Boo.

scottish food

Today I ate something called a 'buttery' after being assured it was some manner of Scottish delicacy in the north-east. This was a lie: it's a very squashed, very salty croissant. Made by Aberdonians.

A handy travel tip: when it Scotland, do not eat the native food. We stuff all manner of things into sheeps' stomachs before boiling them and declaring it edible; our native Irn Bru, a charming radioactive orange fizz that dissolves teeth on contact, outsells all other soft drinks, and our idea of making even the humble bread roll better is to load it with saturated fat and then cake it with salt. So that they'll keep for longer, even if those who eat them don't.
