MICKEY MECHANOID MAKES MERRY...



Anyone remember the MECHANOIDS?  Another TERRY
NATION creation for the BBC TV DOCTOR WHO show, I
doubt that Tel got quite as rich off them as he did the DALEKS,
but they must've brought in a bob or two for the writer.  I recall
them more now from the TV21 strtip than I do the Television
series ('though I still remember them, dimly, from that), but
they've been absent from anywhere for quite some time.

Anyway, one came to live with me today.  He's a bit wary
of his many Dalek roommates, but I'm sure they'll soon all be
getting on like a house on fire.  Let's just hope it doesn't lead to
that, eh?  Hotels are expensive at this time of year, and I remem-
ber reading about one young couple who couldn't get a room -
and her expecting, too.  I call my new guest MICKEY, and
he's quiet as a mouse.  (Hey, that was almost a joke.)
