It looks like the Cybermen are big fans of the automotive industry, which is probably why they were keen on attending the Bikes & Barges rally the other day. Here you can see they are making the most of playing with a shiny red Mini and Yamaha R1 superbike, great for this week’s Toybox Challenge 52 theme – Transport!

The penultimate member of my Domo clan, Knighty, has finally made his way to live with the other Domos. He’s the rare chase from Series 5, a Knight of the Realm. More info. Ref: D1279-02
Today we went to London. Danbo and Big Danbo stowed away in my bag and enjoyed spending time with their Domo buddy Timmy, who lives with my friend Paola. We visited a museum and then went for a big slice of cake and a chat. Timmy was very keen to dive in, but at least the Danbos had a little more restraint!

If You Can’t Stand The Heat…
Chef has been told countless times that he’s not allowed to smoke in the kitchen, but he takes absolutely no notice! Still, he did me a favour by posing for this week’s 52 Weeks Theme, Smoke. More info. Ref: D1097_36
Children’s clubs
Ventura will feature five different areas, catering for five key age groups – under two, two - four, five to eight, nine to 12 and 13 to 17 year olds. For the first time, P&O Cruises has designed an area specifically for parents to supervise their children aged less than two years. Outdoor deck spaces will be themed and architecturally designed with children’s needs in mind, and the children’s areas will feature the latest gaming consoles and interactive technology.
There will be a comprehensive programme of age-appropriate ‘edutainment’, designed to keep children’s minds and bodies active throughout their holiday. These include film shows, quizzes, board games, scavenger hunts around the ship, drama workshops, pool games, sports sessions, singing, dancing, arts and crafts, videos and more.
Noddy on board
For the first time, perennial children’s favourite Noddy will take to the high seas, combining play and learning with a number of fun activities and entertainment tailored for two to four year olds. Noddy will join children for character breakfasts and playtime and complimentary Noddy welcome packs will be provided to all children aged two to four, in their cabin on arrival.
Poolside & Leaves
Me and Leo have been enjoying the garden at the big house where we are staying in Spain with Caz. There is a lovely pool and lots of green plants to sit under when we get too hot. This week’s Toybox 52 Theme is Multiple Exposure – so we helped out Caz with her picture for the week. More info. Ref: D1097_12

Studio Floor
Today was the last day Sunny could come to work with me. He spent it exploring the studio where we are making the Election programme next week. Here you can see him sitting on the presenter's desk looking at the view of the cameras and data screens set into the tabletop. This is the view that Mr Dimbleby will see during transmission.

Bacon Theft
Those of us who were on duty until 4am this morning and had to be back at our posts by 11am were given complimentary breakfasts after snatching a few hours' sleep in a dressing room. Unfortunately, I left my bacon roll unattended for a few seconds and returned to find Buzz, Woody and Alien trying to make off with it!

Having fun with Elizabel's new eyes! Ersa flora makes some amazing products. Elizabel is getting closer to being finished.
Also, flea market props. Go forth and find flea market props. I found the cabinet behind her (with the broken door that I think I'm going to leave broken) for $5! Seriously.
Repeating Seating
Tarty, Scotty and Sunny found this cool bench in Dunnon which appeared to be floating. They were happy to pose for my weekly picture for the current 52 Weeks theme, Repetition. More info. Ref: D1097_26
