An Age of Magic

Dr Who reigns

Dr Who definitely reigns in this household. What man alive does not follow the escapades of the time travelling doctor and his ever changing female assistants?

Certainly not the men in my house!

It is strange; whenever something needs to be done around the place it gets done so long as Dr Who is not being broadcast on the television. Once this show starts, girls, forget about gaining your mans attention for the next hour or so. No matter what you do, no matter how you look or dress - if the Doctor is on the television you can forget about everything until the show is finished.

Forget about dressing up as a naughty schoolgirl or naughty nurse…don the robes of Dr Who and you just might get a response!

I’ll have two tickets to Mars please

Believe it or not but scientists reckon we are just two years away from space tourism becoming a reality. A special rocket-powered plane that will allow tourists the chance to travel around space is currently in development and will start flights in two years - 2010.

Now granted, those keen enough to spend the £50,000 per ticket will only be able to fly 37 miles above the earth but it will fly at twice the speed of sound and will offer those onboard the viewing spectacular of a lifetime. Ordinary, albeit wealthy, people will be able to see the earth as people like Neal Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin have also done.

You have to admit it would be an amazing experience, but I am not too sure I would be brave enough to do it. I like the earth from this perspective - on the ground.
