Cal's Journal

Finally!!!!

( Spoilers... )

Now that was the Torchwood I know and love.

What can I say? I loved every single second of it!

K and I got back a couple of hours ago from the first night of the Hub 3 convention. We decided to have an early night tonight, as we have an early start in the morning. We're definitely planning on staying to party tomorrow night, though! :D

Very disappointed to hear that James won't be able to make it this weekend, but happy that his injury doesn't appear to be too serious. I'm sure we'll still have a great time, as there are still some great guests (I'm particularly looking forward to meeting Paul Copley and Nicholas Farrell - and K is excited about meeting GDL again!) and it's always good to spend time with friends. :)

The opening ceremony turned out not to be an opening ceremony at all, as no guests turned up. o_O It was hardly worth filling up the hall at all! The Gold Pass drinks reception has had to be postponed until tomorrow. Luckily for me I only have a Standard Pass, but I'm sure the Gold Pass holders must be disappointed.

I actually feel quite sorry for the organisers of this event. It must be a complete nightmare for them! And I have to say, so far the staff have been nothing but friendly and helpful - and the Hilton hotel has to be one of the most wheelchair friendly hotels I've ever been in!

But I'm still glad that we live so close to the event that we can drive there and back every day - which makes things so much easier for K. :)

And next week is Hallowhedon. My first weekend away on my own EVER! :D

OH. MY. GOD.

Another great episode! *loves*

I'm impressed by how high the standard is this year.

Roll on tomorrow! :D

I seem to have missed quite a few birthday's lately.

Wishing a belated happy birthday to orchid_slayer, fredsmith518, schehrezade_1, bogwitch, slaymesoftly, facingthesun, willowwood, mary5958 and _a_s_h_l_e_e. I hope you all had a wonderful day. *hugs*

Also wishing a belated happy birthday to two of my oldest online friends, southernbangel and raelee! I love you guys. Don't ever forget it! I hope you both had a perfect day and that the year ahead is a good one for you. *many, many hugs*

Wishing a very happy birthday today to the lovely alwaysjbj and my good friend spikesdeb!! I hope you have the best of days. *big hugs*

In other news, K and I both have Premium tickets to JM's latest London event, The Rift. Yay! :D

Hope to see some of you there. :)

Only 24 minutes to go.

*squeeeeeeeeeeee*

There are two wonderful new Torchwood communities dedicated to Captain John and John/Jack:

guns_n_poodles is a community for all things Captain John

and

roguetimeagents is dedicated to everything John/Jack.

Have fun! :D

My squee for this episode is showing no signs of slowing down. Expect to hear me squeeing all over LJ when the episode finally airs. Either that or I will have exploded from sheer joy! *g*

The birds are singing outside.

But...but...I can't seem to tear my eyes away from the Torchwood preview.

It's even hotter than I thought it was going to be!

*fans self again*

I see my flist is all of a squee over *that* screencap, so I thought I might as well join in! :D

My excitement over this episode has now reached fever pitch! *bounces*

Just over a week to go. Squee! :D

All credit goes to TubbyK over on CDS. Just scroll down a bit. Thanks to bendy1 for the heads up. :)
