Two things.
Via the UK law students comes this most quirky of stories:
A high-profile New Zealand lawyer has decided to wear women’s clothing to court to highlight male bias within the justice system.
Rob Moodie, 67, arrived at Wellington’s High Court on Monday in a blue women’s suit, stockings and a diamond brooch.
OK… In other news, Peter has organised a Short Notice Blogmeet in Edinburgh for this Sunday (30th). The plan is to have something to eat/drink before making our way up Arthur’s Seat to conduct the first volcano-based blogmeet. If you fancy joining us, pop a message in the Peter’s comment box.

My usual base of operations, http://www.willhowells.org.uk/blog, has gone on hiatus. I have no idea how long it’s going to take to resolve – not too long, I hope (touch faux-wood desk surface).
In the mean time, I’ll be roughing it in this blogosphere backwater. Once (not if!) my site comes back, I’ll use the magic of WordPress to import blog posts hence thither.

Yesterday morning I went to the Doctor Who Museum on Blackpool seafront. It’s much more focussed on the “classic” series than the Brighton exhibition (now in Cardiff) with only one room and a few props for the new series. It was nevertheless good fun and full of classic costumes and props. Original Hartnell walking canes were very cool, as were the Melkur and Bessie (I realise this sounds slightly sad). Certainly worth a visit if you’re in the area and a fanboy.
Here are a couple of cameraphone photos from the bit where photography was allowed.
