Day 11 - today's lovely feeling is one that is, hopefully, relatively easy to feel again should you wish. Today's Star Trek: The Next Generation episode features a character that I relate to so much it's slightly painful! Oh, just a minor thing; I pronounce Lieutenant with the British pronunciation (comes from having a family with a long history in the British military and I just can't say it the American way) so if you're wondering why I don't pronounce it like they do in the show, blame my Dad!

Day 10 - today's lovely feeling is one that I hope you've been lucky enough to experience, and that if it's no longer possible to feel it again, thinking back to it might bring back some cherished memories. Today's Star Trek: The Next Generation episode is all about what happens when Data lies to the rest of the crew.

Day 9 - today's lovely feeling is caused by a very particular sound, and today's Star Trek: The Next Generation episode is all about incredible faith in oneself in the face of something terrifying.

Day 5 - a good feeling that comes after something that really has no place in an advent calendar (what was I thinking?!), and reminiscing about a Star Trek: The Next Generation episode that is filled with members of the bridge crew having a lot of faith in each other. I forgot to say that the episode is episode 21 in season 2!

Day 3 - a memory of something lovely that can only happen because of a minor failure, and reminiscing about a Star Trek: The Next Generation episode that takes something that was inherently Earth-bound in 90's pop-culture and puts it on a 24th century spaceship.The Tea and Sanctuary advent calendar contains both a lovely feeling and Em talking about one of her favourite Star Trek: The Next Generation episodes for each day of advent. You do not need to be a Star Trek fan to listen to the episodes. Promise x
