Granted. The genie is a huge Tennant fan, and is so unable to corrupt this wish.

Granted. Unfortunately the genie does not know what a Cranachan is, so guesses. I hope you don't mind hedgehogs glazed in cranberry sauce.

I wish for my very own pet Dalek.

"Cranachan is a traditional Scottish dessert. Nowadays it is usually made from a mixture of whipped cream, whisky, honey, and fresh raspberries topped with toasted oatmeal. Earlier recipes for cranachan or cream-crowdie are more austere, omitting the whisky and treating the fruit as an optional extra. Modern recipes have a high double cream content, while originally this was replaced wholly or in part by crowdie cheese."

Granted, you have pet dalek, as we all know though, Dalek's arent really cut out to be good pets, so the last thing you hear is "Exterminate!"

I still wish it wasnt so cold and rainy.

Granted, it is no longer cold AND rainy, because it is raining volcanic ash.

(Aw, let Tennant go. Do you rally want him to stay in that role too long, and end up the William Shatner of his age?)

I wish I had a police call box parked on my lawn.

Granted. The police keep you awake at all hours, making calls, and frequently wake you up at 3am because they're out of change and need to make an urgent call.

I wish I wasn't convinced the whole house smells of bleach

Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a xeroxed copy of "The Perfect Book," an essay by Leslie Jergenson for her 8th grade class discussing her summer read of "Charlotte's Web."

Nice try, though.

I wish for my next e-book to win an Eppie.

It is even better if you leave out the whipped cream, honey, and fresh raspberries topped with toasted oatmeal....

You mean the only one of the main cast to still have a real acting carrier afterward?

Granted. At this point I should explain that, where and when I grew up, "an eppie" is a child's tantrum, as in "to throw an eppie". And so your next book wins a tantrum from its author when it wins far less than it should from the august bodies of literary assessment (oh, and web bodies too).


I wish I could stop watching and listening to the Electric Proms on the BBC's Interactive Service...

Blast - I'd forgotten about them!

Granted. You can stop any time you like. Just one more tune, then you'll stop... or maybe another... and another... and before you know it you've spent 3 days solid listening and watching them.

I wish I didn't fancy a chocolate eclair

I remember that too. "Eppie" = epilectic fit.

Meanwhile, let's grant ShortNCuddlyAnn's wish not to fancy an eclair. She now fancies a dozen eclairs.

I wish that it wasn't so cold.

I wish I had more energy.

Granted - now you have so much energy it can't be contained and you blow up like a super-nova and eliminate the earth and surrounding planets. This is know as the rule of unintented consequences.

I wish the place I buy quality hardwood was closer.

Granted, but the saws running all night in your back yard are making it hard to sleep...

I wish that I didn't have to work this weekend in a way that does not involve an economic downturn.
