I almost forgot the wonderful Slow Horses.  I am looking forward to season 6 next year.

We're halfway through Down Cemetery Road.  Very compelling, but I'm having trouble processing some of the information as it goes by.


(Slow Horses and Down Cemetery Road have the same creator.)

Let me know what you think about the ending.  I keep forgetting to let my brother know if he should watch it or not.  While we liked it I wouldn't call it a favorite for the year.


I'm very confused about details and even at times who is who (or is it who is whom) on this show, but Skip is really enjoying it, and I'm finding it involving.  I've had to read online episode synopses after viewing an episode on this show; That doesn't usually happen to me on these streaming series.

I looked it up and the show has been renewed with both Emma Thompson and Ruth Wilson.

Freddie, I do get what you mean about being confused at times.  The first episode was the most confusing-lol

I got confused, LOL, in that first episode also because I was wondering for a long time where Emma Thompson was.  :).

Both based on the Mick Herron novels.  I read the first Slough House book (have no idea why it was changed to Slow Horses) but not the Cemetery novel.

I wouldn't mind being there. We had a nice walk this afternoon and it warm enough that I had too many layers on.  We still have autumn leaves.

I went back out about 11 a.m. to finish shoveling the driveway.

I was about 15 minutes into the work when a young man = probably a high school student - came running down the street and asked "Do you want me to finish that for you?"

Of course I said yes. He finished in about 10 minutes and shoveled from where I stopped until where the snow plow had gone by on the street.

I gave him ten one dollar bills. He was very happy....and so was I!

It will be close to that in a few days.
