Of course, next month we have, both, the King and Queen of Hainesville!

;D

A few days later we also have DR Ginny.

Only one day apart.  Well, actually, one year and one day, but we won't mention that.

Yes, one day a year we are the same age.

Many years ago I read a very lighthearted book which featured the word PAMPELMOUSSE very prominently. I cannot recall the name of the book. Anyone here know it?

The new Downton Abbey movie preview is out:

https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/15/entertainment/downton-abbey-trailer/

It looks quite interesting. "Only in theatres" means, I guess, no streaming. At least for a while. I guess I'll wait.

Looks to me like the Dowager Countess has been to Switzerland for some face work.

Really? I can't see it. But then, good work shouldn't be obvious. And it's not as if I've seen Maggie anytime recently. Her hairstyle is very different and that gives her a different look entirely.

I googled your question and found a series of books by Michael Bond about Monsieur Pamplemousse.

I guess I'm gonna try to effect this miracle in the morning - and pray that it will work, which I won't know for a few days.

Just went a little crazy in the motor car. Went to Gelson's and got a few item. Came home and the car locked without beeping, meaning dead battery in the morning. I restarted, backed up, pulled forward and tried again. Nope. Repeated that routine four more times. Nope, Drove around the block. Nope. Went crazy. Tried one more damn time and it finally locked with the beep. I can't take much more of this motor car. Maybe if the miracle later in the week happens strongly, I'll be able to do something about it.

Just finished an odd documentary called On Broadway. Great archival footage, but too often they used scenes from a movie to illustrate shows like Kiss Me, Kate or Brigadoon, neither of which had a sterling film.

And the talking heads included a number of dead people, like Hal Prince and August Wilson, as well as people like Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren. Yes, they've done Broadway, but I don't consider them to be involved in the New York theater as they are on the British stage.

An 8-minute extra on covid was more interesting than the rest of the documentary.

Listening to Weissenberg play some Haydn sonatas - don't much care for Haydn but these are okay.

The closing on Mom's house is set for Friday. I hope it happens. There are some strange shenanigans afoot with finding the title that don't make sense.
