Gah! Well, it may be a good thing that we didn't attempt to go to Norfolk or to the Bonfire this weekend, because when Hubs tried to go and check the tyre pressure on the car it wouldn't start. The battery had magically flattened itself. The RAC man's been round and seems to have fixed it but late this afternoon was a little bit stressy. We ran out of time to do the hoovering. Madness!

Bought teeny-tiny little hairbands today and attempted to put Vi's hair in bunches - it didn't really work, there's still not enough of it. But it did look mightily cute for the three seconds they stayed in. She's been channelling her Inner Spike Thomson today and wearing her sunglasses indoors, in the dark. Plus she did a proper jigsaw all by herself today. And she can sort-of say her name. It sounds more like jho-jhot at the moment though - she still can't say V or L properly. She prefers to refer to herself as 'Baby Girl' at the moment anyway, which is adorable.

Haven't had any complaints from the Mail yet. The Queen Mum's ghost rides a pig through Uxminster every night, drinking Sunny Delight from a novice nun's cleavage and singing 'Cockles & Mussels' in the style of Sid Vicious.

Sela makes my brain hurt.

I need help, my lovely TNG fan F-Listers. I've now got up to the point in the timeline of the show where Sela turns up. But obviously, 'Yesterday's Enterprise' never happened in my AU since Tasha wasn't supposed to be dead, so Sela shouldn't by rights exist here.

However, I can't help but feel that there'd be something lacking in my story if she wasn't there. Indeed, so many of the major stories of S5, including one of Data's biggest S5 adventures, involve Sela, I'm not quite sure how I'd tackle S5 without her.

However, however, she'd be tricky to incorporate with Rollercoaster's story arc. Not only in terms of causality, in terms of drama as well. Would I just be retreading the ground I went over with Ishara? I think it would seriously freak Tasha out to see Sela. There'd be a whole heap of angsting, but has Tasha maybe Angsted enough for a while.

Thoughts, people...?
