DR.WHO AND HIS GILMARK RIDE

Hello Woodsy 

Here's The Doctor with his new Gilmark X43 Rocket Space Car. 

Bet he could outrun Captain Scarlet anyday. What do MC readers think?

BABY ON THE BASE

Moonbase Junior is responding well to his antibiotics and his pneumonia is on the back foot!

So much so he's well enough to visit Moonbase today for a sleepover. A weekend on the rural fringe may just aid his continued recovery.

Reports from the base to follow.

CHRIS FOSS TURBULANCE

Hi Woodsy

KEV'S KATE BUSH

Hi,

Re. the recent post on drawing etc. Here is a (poor) photo of one of the few aurbrush paintings I've done. It is Kate Bush, by the way!

HARLAN ELLISON R.I.P.

Just read that the brilliant author, screenwriter and essayist, Harlan Ellison has sadly passed away aged  84. 

Photo from New Worlds Weekly.

Most  readers here will know of his prolific contributions to Burke's Law,  Voyage to the Bottom of The Sea, The Man from UNCLE, Outer Limits and Star Trek amongst , many, many others. In fact the Star Trek episode, 'The City on the Edge of Forever' has been considered the best of the 79 episodes of the series.  For the cult series Babylon 5 he was creative consultant. 

Our sincere condolences to his family.

Flaming June

The wildfires on Saddleworth Moor seem to be accompanied by breakouts closer to home. From my window the BBC transmitter on Winter Hill is usually clearly visible, but plumes of smoke are issuing from its slopes tonight. Nevertheless, it doesn't stop the sightseers moving in.

HIATUS UPDATE

Gas leak is fixed for a second time.

More serious, Moonbase Grandson has pneumonia. Its been a harrowing 24 hours in hospital but he's in his own home again and responding well to antibiotics.

His parents and Grandparents are all keeping an eye on him.

I'll be back in action on the blog and email soon I hope.

I hope all MC readers are well.

HIATUS

Various crises have hit Moonbase at once in the last week - persistent gas leak and Moonbase junior falling ill - so emails and comments are queuing up I'm afraid. 

As soon as things settle down I'll  get back on track. Sorry for the delay.
