Even the best parties have to end eventually -- and although I am terribly behind in my comments, I can say without hesitation that this year's anniversary celebrations were the best yet.  Whether you've been here from the beginning or you just joined, we are so happy to have you playing in our sandbox!

As usual, you can find all the entries under the challenge: summer holidays 5 tag, or just click here - but since this was a special event, have a full roundup of all fest entries right here!

Please, please let our authors and artists know how great their creations are. And if you couldn't manage to slip that fic in before the deadline, don't worry - there's always amnesty in December!.

New challenge coming up in a moment!

Home sweet home.
Home again, home again.
You can never go home again.

We've just spent a month celebrating the wide and varied wanderings of the Doctor and Jack.  But where do they end up at the end of the day?  Where do they lay their heads (or hearts) to rest?  What kind of home lasts for millennia?

Or is it, as joking's fic, which closed last month's fest, is so elegantly titled, just that Home is Whenever I'm With You?

This month, it's up to you to lead them home.  Or make them realize they've been there all along.

As a gentle reminder, please don't crosspost stories for this challenge elsewhere until the challenge closes about one month from now. And don't forget - leave a comment in THIS post that we can use for voting in our next regular challenge poll!
