So, I actually used my Lady Cup for the very first time today. It's AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This morning, I hadn't started bleeding yet, but I figured that I would later today and decided to try my cup. At first, I tried to put it in standing up and failed miserably. So, I put it in sitting down, and had a little trouble, but finally got it in. It was a little uncomfortable because of the stem, but, I decided to leave it and just see if it was something I could get used to.

So, this evening (I wore it all day :)), I was in the shower, and I decided to just try to remove/reinsert it in there. I took it out, and when I checked, there was blood in the bottom of the cup! I was SO excited because normally, even using tampons, I would leak ALL the time. So, I washed it, trimmed the stem a little, and decided to try to reinsert it standing up again.

It practically placed itself! While I was standing!!! And I barely even knew it was there. I can actually bend over and sit down without worrying!

In any case, I just wanted to say thanks to everybody who helped me figure this out. :)

And, if anyone is thinking about getting a cup and hasn't yet, it's awesome!

The rewatch continues with the last Patrick Troughton story, the last Black and White story and the first to feature the timelords. It achieved the rating of 82.18%, placing it at number 29. This story is noteable for being one of the biggest gainers from the previous DWM poll (the 5th highest overall and the highest in our rewatch) gaining 5.87 points and almost completely swapping positions with Logopolis.

But what do you think? Please post your reviews, comments and thoughts here. All are welcome

Sorry for the lateness of this post, I have been away and ill since ?Friday.

Next week will be Spearhead From Space.

[info]who_daily and [info]torchwood_three are looking for new editors, both regular and back-up. Read all about it here (TW) or here (WD).

Do you have a Doctor Who community or a journal that we are not currently linking to? Leave a note in the comments and we'll add you to the [info]who_daily reading list.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Because of the high posting volume and the quantity of information linked in each newsletter, [info]who_daily will no longer link fanfiction that does not have a header. For an example of what a "good" fanfic header is, see the user info. Please note, the fic must have a header with the fic, not just in the link post, in order to be added to the newsletter. Thank you.

Note: If your fic hasn't been linked, it's probably because there wasn't enough information in the header. The best way to get your fic linked in the newsletter is to use a header indicating characters or pairing and ratings (ratings are your friend). Spoiler warnings would also be a bonus. If you’d like your fic linked, please leave a comment.

I'm quite a lurker here, and I guess this is my first post.

Anyway, I've been watching Mr. Bean episodes lately. In the Christmas episode Mr. Bean is playing with some figurines (including sheep and cows). But there's also one particular figurine that has something to do with Doctor Who.

I wonder what this is... )
