March 30, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

If you study the picture above carefully – put on your detective spectacles – you may just see that one of these Daleks may not belong among other Daleks. You would be right! The Dalek on the left is actually a clever construct from the talented fingers and impressive lungs of Patricia Balloona.

Dalek snack idea

March 30, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is a veggie friendly pizza. That said; it may be friendly to vegetarians but I’m not sure how friendly is to mankind or any other non-Dalek race in general though. This is Dalek pizza. Planning snacks for today’s return of Doctor Who? This might do.
