There's also a link in Places to Visit column
If you’re a fan of classic Doctor Who then check out this side blog in which I’ve posted old material originally printed in paper fanzines about the show and its fandom as well as more recently written articles and reviews.
It’s a nostalgic cornucopia if you were also there or if you’re a newer fan interested in how things used to be.
I don’t update it often nowadays but there are occasional new posts.
