Big Finish: Survivors – Series 6

Posted by ashleyelsdon in Books and Audiobooks

I’ve been waiting for this for some time now, and really looking forward to it. Today it is released, and I’ll almost certainly be buying it today.

In preparation for series 6 I decided to listen to all previous 5 series in order. That’s the Big Finish series of course, not the original television series or the remake. I thought it would be a good wait to get ready and have the timeline and stories straight for series 6. I’d forgotten just how good Big Finish have made survivors. They’ve done an amazing job on it. It’s totally consistent with the original and yet extends it seamlessly.

When I’ve absorbed series 6 I’ll let you know the verdict.

Change of theme

Posted by ashleyelsdon in Admin

It’s just a little change really, nothing spectacular or anything, but a tidy up of sorts. I’ll probably be doing more to it over the coming days / weeks. Thought I’d let you know.

And PalmSounds was 11

Which is kind of a big deal really. 11 years is a long time to have been running a site, any site in fact.

It’s not the big milestone that 10 was, but I think it’s still important.

iCloud troubles

Posted by ashleyelsdon in Tech

I love how Apple always tells you how much all their products and services make life easier. Well not always! Over the last couple of weeks I’ve had terrible trouble with iCloud. To the extent that it’s deleted all of my calendars, forced me to change passwords all over the place too.

Not much fun at all. Not in any way. Thanks so much Apple.

Rebble is moving forward 

Posted by ashleyelsdon in Tech

Which is positive as there’s no real future for Pebble watches with Pebble or FitBit, Rebble could be a possibility. It seems that they’re making progress albeit slow progress. The latest update is the 23rd of April. I’m hopeful that this will bring the Pebble back to life, but it is early days.

Sad to find out that bitLab is closed

Posted by ashleyelsdon in Stuff, Tech

The littleBits bitLab that is. I’d always wondered how sustainable it would be, but apparently there’s already an answer to that question. So it’s a shame. I think that there were some very nice projects in there but obviously not enough money to make it work.

It’s a shame. It was a great idea.
