Howling:River Song's Diary

Hello, I have a querie about river's diary...

I was wondering, if River is indeed meeting the doctor strictly in reverse order, then every adventure she has with him, he will get younger and younger,, and her past is his future etc. Therefore, they will never meet and have had the same experiences, and so the whole point of having the diary is useless... apart from as a general diary,, and to keep track of his faces.

But surely asking "have we done so and so yet" the answer is always going to be "no."

Now I know in Impossible Astronaut it broke the pattern slightly, as she met a future doctor and so they had indeed had somee shared adventures (jim the fish) but in all other instances, the diary seems to be pointless...

I don't know if that made sense, or I'm barking up completely the wrong tree, but could someone help me make sense of this, because the whole thing has been confusing me for days, thanks.UnicornandtheWasp 16:23, April 29, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, with the backwards order thing it is completely pointless, but that it just what River thinks about how they meet, they are time travellers, somewhere down the line after the Doctor meets her as a child he could see her again in a later incarnation. --Revan\Talk 16:25, April 29, 2011 (UTC)
