Outlander this weekend! Can't wait! (still hoping to see an Outlander themed kit in the store, hint hint! lol)

As for books, the one I think I've enjoyed most of all of the ones I have read in the last few years is by George RR Martin, who wrote the Game of Thrones books. This one is called "TUF Voyaging", it's quite a departure from the GOT series, but it is a wonderful mix of humour and adventure. In case you're wondering what it's about -

It's "a darkly comic meditation on environmentalism and absolute power". It stars the eponymous Haviland Tuf, a reclusive, phlegmatic, very eccentric chap with a great love of Spock Speak and a great distaste for pettiness. And he often finds his fellow man to be very, very petty. He wants nothing more than to fly around the universe in his cool Starship, The Ark, with his beloved cats and to make an honest living plying his trade.

Cats and space? What's not to love!
