New Year is a good time for a re-introductory post.

I'm Peter Nolan, and I've previously written for Doctor Who Magazine, Abbyshot, Lovarzi and the You and Who book series, and currently write a lot for Blogtor Who. I also do most of BW's illustrations/composites and had art included in a BBC Book

And thus the era of Purple 11th Doctor has come to an end. Sad to see it go but worth it for a new chapter next year 💍

But for now enjoy this montage of almost 10 years where the Abbyshot 11 coat served me well:

FOR SALE!!!

Yes after a long think I have decided to retire my Abbyshot Purple 11th Doctor coat. Whilst it will be sad to see this go, after 10 years of cosplay ventures, I rarely wear this coat these days and I have a wedding to plan!

Miss those days of Sci-Fi Collector at The Stamp Centre. ‘Twas there I met Tom Baker just over nine years ago. Also bought a few Abbyshot cosplay coats through them too, plus other ephemera.

I have owned this #11thdoctor #Abbyshot coat for 10 years and enjoyed wearing it for conventions but after rarely wearing it these days and wanting to save up for wedding next year, it's time to let this one go.

I will be asking a high price for this but will be open to offers. I want to make sure this goes to a new home and hope whoever wishes to buy this will remember when they were the Doctor whilst wearing this.

Next in cosplay archaeology is MCM Ireland Comic Con from 2016. Lots of fun, including meeting @teamemeraldcosplay.bsky.social for the first time, presenting Peter Davison with replica celery on behalf of Abbyshot, and the first signatures for my River Song Diary. My cosplay's still basic, but fun.

Hey @AbbyShot thanks for the ff :-)
