I hope you enjoy The Swish of the Curtain anyway, Billy!
I am sure I will enjoy watching The Swish of the Curtain, Anita, even though I would rather watch it on my TV, instead of online.

I have learnt how to download Videos, and then burn them on to DVD-R discs, mostly thanks to helpful advice, from online contacts.

If your laptop and TV both have HDMI connections you can plug in a HDMI cable and then whatever is on your laptop screen is shown on your TV screen.

Still enjoying reading The Children of Green Knowe, just over halfway through the Book, this afternoon, I enjoyed reading The Story (which Mrs Oldknow, told to Tolly) of Black Ferdie (a gypsy and horse thief).

I am also reading it and have almost finished, about ten pages to go. I am watching the DVD, but being careful to stay behind the book, so I have only watched the first two episodes. I am puzzled that Toseland (Tolly) seems to start wearing glasses all the time, but by episode two he is not wearing them at all.

Must be the magic of being at Green Knowe! ;-)

hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'
