On another note, this is probably my last blog post of the year (and the decade!), although I'll still be around over the weekend to take in the festive cheer before my trip. After that, I'm not sure how much I'll be online whilst in Chicago...

From Earth to Gallifrey to Skaro, and all points in between, Happy Holidays!
