The rain persists. Rick is barking at every single horse that rides by the house. A press photographer is roaming across the garden with his camera.

I watched a BBC programme about Peter O’Toole. There was some old footage of him with Richard Burton – they looked so very young.
I went upstairs and wallowed in a hot bath. Paul cut my hair for me (he does a very good bob). After the evening dog walk I shall curl up on the sofa with my whiskey and chocolate and watch Fargo and Poldark. It will be nice when the sun comes out again.
POLDARK! I just excitedly told hubby 2 days ago, Poldark returns (in the USA) in October! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI only watch it for the Cornish countryside of course!
DeleteYou sound to be really looking after yourself today.
ReplyDeleteI've had a very lazy and indulgent day.
DeleteSounds like a great day to me. Whiskey and chocolate especially!
ReplyDeleteOnly on a Saturday night!
DeleteCan't you play bingo that night?
DeleteLotto is big in France but I'm not keen on the prizes, usually a ham joint or a vacuum cleaner.
DeleteI always liked Peter O'Toole, wonder if the footage was from Becket, one of my favorite movies.
ReplyDeleteYes it was, the scene on the beach.
DeleteAre there any limits to Paul's talents?
ReplyDeleteHe'll try his hand at most things.
DeleteYou are a trusting soul, letting your husband cut your hair. I know Fargo was a movie, is it also a tv show? I'm not familiar with Poldark. If it's a British crime mystery show, I'd love to try it out! -Jenn (very weird having photographers on your property)
ReplyDeleteThe Fargo TV series was inspired by the original movie, we are watching the third (and probably last) series at the moment. I like the black humour. Poldark is a period drama based in Cornwall, it's worth watching just for the Cornish scenery.
