Doctor Who - New Adventures - 60 - Lungbarrow
Doctor Who - New Adventures - 60 - Lungbarrow | Marc Platt
2 posts
'Nonsense, child,' retorted the Doctor. 'Grandfather indeed! I've never seen you before in my life!' All is not well on Gallifrey. Chris Cwej is having someone else's nightmares. Ace is talking to herself. So is K-9. Leela has stumbled on a murderous family conspiracy. And the beleaguered Lord President, Romanadvoratrelundar, foresees one of the most tumultuous events in her planet's history. At the root of it all is an ancient and terrible place, the House of Lungbarrow in the southern mountains of Gallifrey. Something momentous is happening there. But the House has inexplicably gone missing. 673 years ago the Doctor left his family in that forgotten House. Abandoned, disgraced and resentful, they have waited. And now he's home at last. In this, the seventh Doctor's final New Adventure, he faces a threat that could uncover the greatest secret of them all. Marc Platt wrote Ghost Light, the last Doctor Who story recorded by the BBC. He also wrote the New Adventure Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible and the Missing Adventure Downtime. He is told that he lives in Islington, but would not be surprised if that were Time Lord propaganda.

Well beyond moving which is it‘s own adventure, I can officially say I‘m now going to be a Middle School Librarian next year and so excited for this new role in a district that seems so amazing! It felt good to a resign from a job that has drained my mental health the past few years and move on to newer and better things. ❤️

My hubs finally quit his job today, which has been a source of significant stress over the last 18 months. We‘re going to have at least one gap week however so things are going to be tight this month. I already have some of #lmpbc , #coffeebeanbookclub , and most of my #basicwitchswap ready to go. That being said they likely won‘t get much larger this month. I know you all get it! 😘

Avanders 🤭🤭🤭 Yay!!!! I am *so* happy to hear that!! I know it‘s scary AF, but it is so important to leave the things that are killing us. You guys will be brilliant!! And of *course* we understand! You can send me book-only via media mail for #LMPBC — totally understand! ♥️♥️ 5y
DaveGreen7777 He definitely made the right decision. No job is worth sacrificing your mental health over. I‘ve had to walk away from jobs that were causing too much stress, and I‘ve always wound up working in a much better environment. Sending your husband best wishes with his job search! 5y
BethM @Avanders @DaveGreen7777 thanks! I already noticed a huge difference in his attitude after he left the job yesterday. He has a conditional offer in a cheese plant, we just have to wait out the physical and such which isn‘t scheduled until Weds. The new place seems nice. The prison had been just slowly killing his soul for years and the last 18 months was by far the worst. 5y

BethM @Avanders I have a few things stashed, just not the Halloween extravaganza I had in my head 😂 Do either you or @Chrissyreadit do spicy snacks? 5y
Chrissyreadit @BethM I am on a keto diet - I was dx with diabetes in August- so no worries! Was he in a prison? My husband works in a prison - I have begged him to quit every year and he is too proud to go on disability ( he was dx with PTSD from military service). I‘m glad your husband did - it is a soul crushing job. Also I understand limited funds!!!! Do not worry with me!!!! 5y
BethM @Chrissyreadit yup, he‘s been working in the prison system for about 10 years with the last 7-8 in a max facility women‘s prison. I totally get it. Tell your husband that even one day out mine is 1000 times happier. 5y
Chrissyreadit @BethM he knows- we have not been able to live together for past 5 years because of PTSD and work- he‘s just stubborn. It took him over a year to find work when he left military and he really should just go on disability but he carries our insurance. I told him we would make it work- but because my health has been a problem past 4 years he won‘t. I would rather we were a family though. 5y
Chrissyreadit @BethM I hate our prison system and am desperate to have national healthcare ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 5y
BethM @Chrissyreadit that‘s extra hard. 💔 anytime you need to talk just lmk! 5y
Chrissyreadit @BethM thanks 😘❤️😘 5y
Avanders That‘s so nice .. it‘s always comforting to have that immediate confirmation of decisions made right 🥰🥰♥️ And yes, I‘m down with spicy snacks! 😁 5y
