Every so often I get a little shiver of excitement that there's a World Cup next summer. I mean, it's somewhat sullied by the fact it's hosted by such a backward country in terms of ethics and human rights (plus Canada and Mexico) but it can't be helped

Always a bit of an Anglophile, but just recently started watching Upstairs, Downstairs from the 70’s…so good. Definitely the precursor to Downton Abbey. Also…watched Pauline Collins in her BAFTA-award winning role in Shirley Valentine. LOVED it! 🥰

Quite enjoying "Death by Lightning" on Netflix. I suspect that's because I know 2% of F-A about James Garfield, so the inevitable anachronisms and artistic licences go over my head (except for the anachronistic swearing, which wisely follows in Deadwood's footsteps). Also: jeekist, what a cast!

When I was foolish, I detested sagacity. I ate the fruits of my foolishness and ignorance. I thank God because I was once foolish. It was from my foolishness that I learnt and understood the true savour of sagacity.
