Rubbish filter
Sci-Fi channel’s new lineup of shows – does Sci-Fi lack a rubbish filter, or perhaps any sense of judgement? From the looks of their new shows, the answer seems to be yes; with the exception of a few, they all sound terrible (and they’re all fantasy, not SF). I mean, ‘Dead Lawyers – lawyers that…

Serendipity
So it was a gorgeous day yesterday in Cambridge, sun shining, birds singing, etc etc, and after a game of badminton in the morning I went to do some reading on the Trinity College backs.
