There's been lots of division in the country lately. Differing opinions on a key issue has pitted father against son, aunty against niece, and friend against friend. The critical questions has been, of course, "Can Doctor Who be a woman?"

We were glad to see that both sides are being catered for by our local Calendar Club stall in Woking:


Bingo! Braces-wearing innovative Jodie on the right, ancient white men on the left.

The calendar we were confused by, however, was this one:


Yes, the "Retro" calendar. While we can understand the bakelite and Hillman Imp, wouldn't it have been more appropriate to have the dates from a year other than 2019? They could easily have gone for, say, 1963 and it still been correct. Plus it would have been the year Doctor Who started!

Advent Calendar 2025

1st December 2025

Hello! We've sort of lost count, but think the first Advent Calendar was back in 2003, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine says it looked like this: Of course all the links are dead, but the thing it has in common with this year's is that it is still coded in HTML, probably the last thing I will ever rely on coding for. Now it looks like this: Happy Advent! We have gone for the Bonne Maman JAM Calendar again this year, after leaving it too late last year and it selling out at both Fenwick and Selfridges! We get a fresh pot of jam every day to enjoy with our tartines and Ovomaltines. We also have the Domino's "Merry Crustmas" leaflet, and a MUJI calendar we'll show you later in the month. Do let us know what you are opening every day! You can leave a message below, or email us your ideas and suggestions for future days at robotmaths@outlook.com Have a great day!
