@NicolaB70 you may tell me your news later ... Bring a plate for yourself a bit of company over supper would be rather nice
I much more enjoyed the real life adventures of the real owner - 6th Earl of Caernarvon who discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamen and was later apparently killed by the King's curse (but probably more prosaically in the form of an infected mosquito bite though...) I do quite enjoy some historical series and films though,
I'll go and ask Mr Amazon Kindle for a copy now! Thanks...Have you read The Visitors by Sally Beauman? I think you might enjoy it.
Without giving anything away
Next weeks quote ..." We are all on the same side"
I wonder how it will end .. Winter will never be the same again .. Lady k x
All ready for you Lady K. Fire is lit, well I flicked the switch on the heater, same thing and oh yeah while I remember, just turn on your iPad and there will be your roaring fire. Don't forget to turn heater off.You seem to have forgotten , just a light supper tonight ..
I have had lunch out with Lord Tom ..
The fire needs lighting in my room though , just going to relax for a while ..
I will take supper on a tray ..
In your own time
Really , I love a Christmas day special you have made my day ..There a Christmas special to look forward to after the current series ends, but I've a feeling that it will come back at some point if only for a movie, we will have to wait and see
Well such a modern service @NicolaB70 ....All ready for you Lady K. Fire is lit, well I flicked the switch on the heater, same thing and oh yeah while I remember, just turn on your iPad and there will be your roaring fire. Don't forget to turn heater off.
Your supper has been left on a tray as instructed. I hope the bag of nuts and bottle of water meet your satisfaction m'lady.
I will bid you goodnight
Going off topic , nooooo, always nice to have a chat , other topics always spring to mind ..what an interesting experience you had ..I'll go and ask Mr Amazon Kindle for a copy now! Thanks...
Done!

PS As a young teenager I actually spent a year in Egypt with my soldier father and was lucky enough to see King Tut's death mask in Cairo museum, and again when he was on display in London. So to keep on topic that's probably good enough reason for me to prefer fact over Downton fiction.
ah yeah your best crystal glass, well I'm still using that from the posh wine you left last night for us, I hid a bottle as it was so nice. Hic.Well such a modern service @NicolaB70 ....
There seems to be a lot of instructions for me to follow ..
Flicking switches , opening my own bottle of water , whatever happened to the best crystal ...glass ...
And iPad rather than gramophone ....
A bag of nuts rather than sweet meats .....
Well I hope service improves it is only Monday after all ..
So good to hear Nicola .. I must say for a ladies maid you are very well versed ... You may turn out to be a modern woman , such changes are happening .. Society today ..ah yeah your best crystal glass, well I'm still using that from the posh wine you left last night for us, I hid a bottle as it was so nice. Hic.
An iPad is more sophisticated than an old gramophone, just hit the shuffle and you can have continuous music without having to change the round thing you place on the gramophone. If you'd rather sweet meats I could leave you a bag of bacon frazzle crisps or pork scratching If you so wish.. Don't worry service should improve by the end of the week.
Wish they would do a re run of Passage to India, love love loved itSame here, I watched some of the earlier shows ( nearly anything with Maggie Smith in it gets a thumbs up from me) but just couldn't get into it. Yet, I love Howard's End, Passage to India, Pride and Prejudice, Gosford park, Sense and sensibility and Little women
Wish they would do a re run of Passage to India, love love loved it
That's impressive Robs , I have only have a vague memory of this very good film , need to watch it again ..Ooohh you love A Passage to India too, it's what I call a haunting film in places especially in the caves, with wonderful actors and another E.M Forster classic, I love it View attachment 15854

Stop it. Stop it. Stop it right nowGood Christmas gifts
Tut, didn't you black the grate and set the fire ready to light?Sorry Lady @Kat100, i had mine on mute for a bit of peace and quiet. All this running around after the gentry has worn me out and what with all the polishing of shoes, darning the clothes and you changing your clothes umpteen times a day, well, the poor old washer and drier has seemed to be constantly on today and I've still got to iron it all yet. I did manage to change your bedding today to a nice fresh duvet, just hope you don't complain as your used to sheets and blankets and your eiderdown . Pie is calling to be covered with pastry now, Would you like me to save you a slice of pie for your supper or something lighter?
It's everywhere you goStop it. Stop it. Stop it right now
Our titles may soon be going Lord Nigel... What will become of the abbey ...The times are a changin' at Downton, caught up last night
