The next generation

Got a warm, fuzzy feeling while wandering through Ottaker’s book store on Saturday.

A little lad, no more than seven, ran to his mum and nan, eyes shining with excitement, and declared at the top of his voice that “there’s a Doctor Who book and you can make a CYBERMAN!!!”

“How sweet,” thought I, “Nice to see the next generation of Whovians being born.”

Then I darted across and bought the last copy of said book for my nephew for Christmas before ‘mum’ or ‘nan’ got to the display.

I am evil (though as far as young Tom is concerned, I am the best auntie in the world).

  1. Make a Cyberman? Out of your pets and this little toy cybersuit you can buy?! Sound messy.

    You should be ashamed of yourself, depriving that poor young boy of his Doctor Who book – he’ll be scarred for life! Still, it could have been worse. You could have followed them to Waterstones and bought the last copy there before their very eyes too! You didn’t, did you?!

    Luckily I do not have your warped, twisted utterly dispicable mindset. 🙂
