Destruction leads to a very rough road but it also breeds creation

Time for an update. I am feeling low-level murky, not bad enough to stay home, but bad enough to stop me concentrating on work as well as I'd like. I hope this will stop soon.
On Thursday night we stayed up quite late talking to Hatter, and then walked home in the dark. I set the alarm wrongly, woke up late feeling very rested, and decided to take a personal day; we went back over to have breakfast with Hatter and see him off. The rest of the day I worked on tidying the house.
On Saturday Firinel, 5eh and I went to a Habitat for Humanity house and I cut floorboards to the right size all day. I had to cut them at a funny angle, because the stairs weren't quite on a square with the rest of the house. When I asked why, I was told that the house was A Hundred Years Old, and they hadn't invented carpenters' squares in those days.
Other people talking about watching Doctor Who made me think about my own history as a fan. I think the US experience of Doctor Who is rather different from the British experience: Theferrett's joke about doing fund drives at Doctor Who parties is one example of this, but another and more important one is that those of us who watched it in Britain watched it in order. I worked out last night that the first Doctor Who I ever watched was Paradise Towers (Update: I must have watched something in the Davison era (thanks, Rysmiel)); anything later than that I know, and anything earlier than that I just haven't watched all the way through, or in most cases, at all. Shocking, eh?
Next metacity bug to fix is 408904, merging in the last Linus patch, and then looking into 414113.
Having followed the recent events in Copenhagen with some interest, I wanted to share Schnews's lego interpretation.
Today's film clip: Millie Small. Riordon loves this song.
