I can see that trying to get a word in edgeways will be my main priority where this blog is concerned.
It seems only polite to say hello, since I'm the other half of this blog. So, hello. I'm Dave. Or David. Never Davy. I wouldn't thank you for calling me Davy. I'll probably be known as the "other one" and that's fine by me. He's the talented one in this duo.
We tend to share a large number of interests, so for most of the time what he says goes for me. I'm sure there are areas where we diverge (mainly because he hasn't got round to watching/reading/listening to it yet) but sharing the same voice for much of the time.
I'm also known as the one with the family, since unlike Walt I'm now married with a daughter. Both Walt and myself frequently pause and wonder how on earth I managed that. So expect several posts here on how brilliant some of the modern kids TV programmes are, mainly because that's all I get to watch most of the time.
A word of note....Walt and myself were at one point two-thirds of the entity known as Catholic Taste, hence the name of this blog. This was a text-based fanzine, which was mainly but not exclusively centred on Doctor Who. In fact, it may have been the first Doctor Who fanzine not to concern itself at all with Doctor Who. In writing it we made the unusual step of pretending we were a band and that the issues we released were albums. It seemed funny at the time. This will explain why later we talk about being a bassist or playing drums when neither of us can play either. It will also explain why we will talk of some articles being from our "second album".
We have a vague idea to "re-release" some of the old Catholic Taste stuff, possibly updated since it's over ten years since we wrote it. We'll see.
In the meantime, pull up a chair and have a read of Walt's stuff. He's posting more because he has access to the blog at work whereas my employers are cleverer than his.
