Dearest Kasterborites! Here at Kasterborous Towers we aim to do a good deed every day.

Yesterday I resisted the urge to slap an idiot. That was my good deed for the day! Anyway, today’s good deed is to give a shout out to a small charity event being held in Penarth to support Penarth Arts and Crafts Ltd, which is redeveloping Penarth Pavilion.

This event is “A Day in the Life of Simon Fisher-Becker” which is being organised by a local science fiction fan group “Timeless” and is the second recent event in the “A Day in the Life of…” series of events which originally ran from 1997 to 2001 but was resurrected last year with “A Day in the Life of Louise Jameson”. As this was a big success the decision was made to run another event on Sunday 25th January 2015 with Simon Fisher-Becker as the guest and his one man show, “My Dalek Has a Puncture”, as the highlight of the day.

The day will include a special one-off regeneration of the Quiz of Rassilon by Michael Snooze, and a writers panel with David Llewellyn and Scott Hancock.

Simon’s one man show “My Dalek Has A Puncture”, is the main feature, followed by a question-and-answer session, autograph signings, charity raffle and dealers’ table.

If you are in the Cardiff/Penarth area then I strongly urge you to attend this event as the price of admission (£12 for adults and £8 for children) is worth paying just to see Simon Fisher-Becker’s show – everything else is a bonus AND you’ll be supporting a local arts charity. Win-Win!

If you don’t know anything about Simon’s show then check out my review. You won’t regret it as the show is hugely inspirational whilst also very intimate – and you’ll get to meet the man himself! As an added bonus, the event takes place in Penarth, where location filming happened for various Doctor Who stories including The Impossible Astronaut and Day of the Moon. Why not go location scouting while you’re there?

There haven’t been very many tickets sold so far but a lot of people have said they are interested – it would be a huge shame if the event gets cancelled so please, once again, I exhort you to please support this event and the charity. Here are the details:

“A Day in the Life of Simon Fisher-Becker”

25th January 2015 11.30am to 6pm

Penarth Pier Pavilion, The Esplanade, Penarth CF64 3AU

Tickets: £12, £8 concs. Tel: 029 2071 3201. www.penarthpavilion.co.uk/events
