Keeley Hawes is brilliant. Feeding my first born it was Peyton Place .... with Ryan O'Neal at 4pm and then yoga with Richard Hittleman at 4.30. I can't believe I remember that!

LOL. I used to watch Days of our Lives while I was feeding my firstborn. :) I LOVED Eastenders, then switched cable carriers and no longer get it. I like all the mysteries I get on Public Broadcasting....Endeavor, Grantchester, etc. Last night I saw a rerun of an old Morse. F...

I like Endeavour .... I've never watched Doctor Who or Poldark but I do like the soaps. Our first 7 years in France we had no English tv. I used to watch Days of Our Lives and The Bold and the Beautiful in French. What a laugh that was. Bad enough in English. LOL!

Hahahahaha! When I went away to college I was so ashamed of my "Maine accent" that I worked hard at losing it....something I would never do today. After college I moved out of state and never returned, but when we took the kids back to visit they couldn't understand half of wh...

I'm sure there is genetic memory with language. The Black Country was an area of heavy industry. I can remember having to walk 7 miles home from school on many occasions when the fog was so thick that they stopped the buses from running. It was mostly smog from the factories. ...

OMG....those links are FASCINATING !!! I've bookmarked them so as to spend time on each. I've always had a big interest in linguistics (grandson is majoring in it in college) and wish I could go back and study it more. My mother's family - who live in Northern Maine - migrated ...

It's 58F here, expected to go down to 48 tonight. That's cold enough for me. LOL! I didn't watch Press .... but I know what you mean about English and proper English. I don't speak either of them. I'm Black Country through and through. Locals are quite used to it by now. L...

We did our clocks at 2am on the 27th and finally Opentopia is on realtime for me. On the 18th I switched on my central heating. It will be on until mid-May. I don't mind going out in the cold but I'm not prepared to be cold indoors. I'm glad you had fun in Portland ..... but...

Hello MD, I COULD tell you where i've been......but then I'd have to kill you. LOL. Actually, just got back last night from visiting friends in Portland and enjoying all the fun stuff there. You really are getting soaked! I thought Oregon was rainy but all we've had lately i...
