More Doctor Who goodness: The updated (again?) Cybus Corporation website and clockwork shennanigans.

So? I'm a geek.

For the third day running, it's been glorious weather, which means the percentage of Glaswegians being admitted to hospital suffering from sunstroke has probably soared. Chalk up another contributory factor to the appalling state of Glasgow's health. Mind you, a report has said that smoking, drinking and diet may screw up Scots but, in addition, the gene pool has been affected by generations of deprivation. Brave New World, indeed...

One other thing about the weather - what's with all the bad tattoos? Normally, I'm spared the Disney characters and self-daubed homages to "Mum" or "Kylie"*, but the warm weather has seen the spoiled milk-skinned denizens of the shadows emerge blinking into the sunlight and peeling off their protective layers of red, white and blue (or green and white) polyester to expose their body"art".

*You too can be a tattoist - all you need is a needle and a biro - what could be simpler (or, for that matter, uglier)?
