Why March 18th? I don't flipping know. Because March Makes Me Manic. Perhaps it's because it's the date when Caligula was pronounced Roman Emperor, or... I dunno, pick your own reason from Wikipedia.

Thank you so much John Brownlow for reminding me of the existence of Gabriel Kahane, and specifically of this track (and of this video of this track).

Listen to this. Watch this. Make sure you switch subtitles on (button near the bottom-right of the video window). And I almost dare you not to cry.

A lovingly produced 164-page Doctor Who annual, in which Ken Campbell plays The Doctor.

In 1987, the contenders for the role of the Seventh Doctor had been narrowed down to two people: Sylvester McCoy, and his mentor Ken Campbell. Sylvester got the role, when BBC decided that Campbell (whose audition channelled Doctor Manhattan from the recently-published Alan Moore comic Watchmen) was too scary for children. Yes, this really happened.

But what if Campbell had got the job? In the universe next door, he did. Join us for the adventures of... The Lost Doctor.

Contents include:
* An exclusive interview with Ken Campbell about the show that never was
* An A-Z of the 'Lost Doctor' verse
* Articles on Quantum Physics and Time Travel
* Short Stories about giant parrots and the Knights Templar
* A Joycean Wordsearch
* A collection of thought provoking Jungian synchronicities presented by Charles Fort
* Original art by, among others, Jimmy Cauty, ex KLF
* Original Audio Scripts
* Comic nonsense
* ...and a number of other heroic surprise inclusions.

Who here has received their copy of the latest Mycelium Parish News? What do you make of it?

Always a bit peculiar, sending these things out into the void, and then waiting to hear the ripples. Always lovely to get feedback.
