Downton Abbey

Downton Abbey Joss Barratt Photographer downton abbeyI’m still trying to get over the fact that Lady Sybil is no longer with us :(

I was totally shocked after watching Downton Abbey’s episode last night on PBS.

Yes. I am hooked on this show and my husband is too.

…maybe she’ll come back to life ?

I think not. wishful thinking.

just venting.

Downton Abbey

Always a little behind the newest fad, I only recently discovered the wonder of Downton Abbey. It is a British/American Series that premeired in September of 2010. A third series is currently in productions for September 2012. It is set at Highclere Castle.

 I’m fascinated with the lives of each of the characters but especially the 3 young ladies in the above photo. Mary, Edith, and Cybil.

I long to travel to Europe and visit the famous Castles and Gardens and especially Highclere Castle which is only 1 hours and 20 minutes from London. I recently discovered a website that has reasonable prices for Hostels in London. At around $40 US per night, one could stay in London and take day trips to the surrounding areas.

Ballykissangel Music Video and Leap Year Trailer

Ballykissangel combines simple living, a priest, a bar and I think it’s set in Ireland or filmed there. It is a really great BBC series! The first season is the best!

 

Leap Year is set in Ireland; so we’re going to see about watching it to get in the mood for St. Paddy’s Day!

“Everybody” Fav. Song & Ramona and Beezus Fav. Movie

I first “fell in love” with this song in the movie: Ramona and Beezus. It’s a great family movie. I will watch it again and again.
