I lost interest in the Dublin Murders after two episodes (and in Vienna Blood after thirty minutes). Just finished rewatching 'The Killing' AKA 'Forbrydelsen' (1) and 'Borgen' (1-3) on DVD.

I have done the odd evening game in the past at the KCom but used to have to leave on about 65-70 mins to get the last train. Which was kinda rubbish..

Re: Downton Abbey!
I like 'Downright Shabby' but I rarely go to a cinema. I last went for the Harry Potters and suspect I may never bother again. I'm hoping DA will be the Christmas Day TV movie in 2020.

Re: What Are You Doing Now?

"We can't build a railway line that our Victorian ancestors would have built with shovels".

Can't be long before our Co-op puts its mincepies out.
The world has gone mad.
