"14.6: Spent twelve hours on yet another primitive and buddleia-infested
planet after answering what Blake decided was a call for help, and I could
have told him was a trap (and did, at length, and he listened as carefully
as always.) He refused to leave until we were absolutely sure there was no
one to rescue from whatever well-disguised danger they didn't appear to be
in. During which time he appears to have watched where he was going with his
usual starry-eyed skill, and was attacked by something resembling a 4-foot
furry cockroach with teeth. Unfortunately, he managed to escape getting too
badly mauled and will be running his Glorious Revolution again before we

I like 'Orac'. Ensor is great fun (the way he doesn't let Blake or Cally get
a word in edgewise is wonderful). I like the bits with Blake and Cally -
they have a warm sibling relationship, not as showy as that he has with Avon
or Jenna, but nice. The four afflicted all reacting very much in character -
Jenna gritting her teeth and getting on with it ("I'm managing"); Gan
choosing to be with the others (even Snarly) for comfort; Vila firmly
pretending that it isn't happening; and My Darling first getting *extremely*
short-tempered, then getting sick of sitting around 'waiting to die',
throwing orders around ... and going down to the day.
Also, Ensor's flying doodad is cute, and I love My Favourite Autocrat's
enthusiasm <grin> for being ordered about by the flying doodad. Arguing,
barely flinching when it shoots at him, getting sarky, and the wonderful
(coming from him!) "I'm getting fed up with taking orders..."
Sentimental softy me, but I always feel sorry for the goldfish ...

Subject: [B7L] Ebay and Monthlies
Message-ID: <43.51e2c7a.265b4d02@cs.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
A while back someone on one of the lists asked what to do with his B7
Monthlies and wondered if he should just chuck them. I think he was told
that he could DONATE them to a con such as Redemption or something.
CURRENTLY on Ebay there is a set of the 25 Monthlies and the price is up to
$127.49 plus postage.
So if you have a set of the Monthlies or any other goodies, I strongly
suggest you try Ebay to sell them. (I should take my own advice, but I'm
lazy.)
As for me, I have THREE complete sets of the 25 Monthlies--all complete with
goodies. I am willing to sell a complete set for $50 which includes book
postage in the USA to the first two Americans who want them. I will
definitely keep one set. However, I doubt anyone on the list really is in
need of the Monthlies. I think most of us already have more than what we
really need. As for people outside of the US, postage is a real bear. I'd
think surface would probably by something like $20 since these things are
heavy. It could even be more. Air would simply not be even reasonable. I
am sure, though, that you can find these Monthlies more cheaply at cons in
the UK if you happen to be going to any.
Actually, I think I paid something like $250 each for probably two of the
three sets. Issues used to run $10 to $15 apiece. Now, as the guy who
asked earlier on the list found out, most people don't even want to buy them
for any price--no matter how good it is.
If you haven't been checking out what's happening on Ebay, you should. The
past six-nine months there has always been a lively selection at Blakes 7
and Blake's 7. Be sure to check out both as the selections do vary. Ann
Wortham normally has items for sale there. And occasionally Corgi models
show up. It was two years ago that one went for 250 pounds in the Horizon
auction. It was mint in box, of course. But on Ebay, you can find them NOT
in box for anywhere from $20 to $50. Ebay is definitely something the B7
collector should be checking up on.
I know I have bought photos, artwork, a Liberator handgun, Corgi
Liberators, mousepad, magazines, jigsaw puzzles, gen fanzines, and
newsletters in the B7 section. I do recommend Ebay.

Dr Who fans in the rolegaming fanzine community came up with the generic
title 'Picnic Hampers of the Daleks'. Just thought I'd throw that in.

You missed out City at the Edge of the World, which is six words longer than
most of the episode titles (and arguably worth six whole episodes by lesser
writers).
Also Pressure Point, though that's only two words. Interestingly (or maybe
not) its working title was also a two-worder - Storm Mountain. Perhaps
someone reminded Terry Nation that the budget didn't really stretch to
mountains, possibly not even to storms, and whilst Drizzle Claypit might be
more than feasible, it wasn't half as dramatic.
And Mission to Destiny.
I think they should have made an episode called Dawn of the Horizon Killer
Bounty, in which the Liberator is menaced by Diane Gies armed with a giant
chocolate coconut bar.

Spacefall as opposed to landfall, I think - the rebels get a new home which
is a space vessel rather than land

I came up with a title for a Dr Who / Derek & Clive crossover: "Doctor Who
and the Cunts of Dagenham". It's probably best that it remains unwritten.

Yep. And it always reminds me of planetfall, which is a fairly
common term in SF.

Sounds like a fun game to play when we've all got scads of time

I always figured it was an allusion to "windfall", which comes
from sailing metaphor.

Per the last time I sent a a stack of zines via sea, sending a medium large
parcel via sea doesn't save much. If you package items so that they meet the
AIR SMALL PARCEL size requirements or if you stuff Global Priority Envelopes,
you won't pay but a few dolars more and you'll get much quicker service.
They also have a Global Priority box, which for what I've sent is more
expensive than stuffing multiple GP envelopes (because the box has a weight
limit), but it's another possibility.
But, yes, anyway you do it, postage would be costly.
