I always liked Major De - Coverley, whose only duties were pitching horseshoes, kidnapping Italian labourers and renting apartments for the soldiers on leave.

I always think that book has one of the best endings ever. Bringing back a character you'd kind of forgotten about just to end it with a bang. 'Jump!'.

Didn't Big Love bring somebody back to finish it all?
Eh, nevermind...

Anyone got Apple TV? I've just got a three months free subscription but I can't think of anything to watch. I've seen Slow Horses and Severance but is there anything else worth looking at? There's something called 'Masters of Air' but I don't know anything about it.

IF you are into Classic Coast you might be interested in something called "Calls" I watched/listened to the first two episodes it seems like it's a portrayal of phone calls between people during a supernatural event. It's only voice of "private conversations" with sound wave graphics on screen, the episodes are about 15 minutes long.

 he first episode was some sort of mix of the rapture event and shapeshifters, the second episode is about a guy having missing time as he's going for a drive and he thinks it's the same day but when calling his family/friends they think he abandoned them for years. It can be cheesy at times but being such short episodes that it's not much of an investment to test out if it grabs  your interest

Hey!  The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes [1984-85] is available on the Roku Channel. Jeremy Brett and David Burke are the best Holmes/Watson duo I think. The episodes follow the stories closely and my gosh the details that went into this production.  Look at the intro - even gobs of horse scat in the streets.

Been trying to watch The Rings of Power which is supposed to be based on Tolkein's The Silmarillion.  I keep laughing though as every time I see the actor the cast as Elrond Half-Elven, mighty Lord of the elves all I can see is Eddie Haskell.

I go through phases in watching This Old House...

For a show that's been around 40 years, they are relatively healthy people.

The deaths:
•Russell Morash, the executive producer - 88
•Roger Cook, after a long illness - 70
•One of the Ferrante Brothers (tile guys) literally died on one of the days they were recording. On that final day, Joe did not look good and the job he was doing wasn't very good. Heart attack - 56
•One of the kids in their apprentice program, GenNext, died of a pre-existing medical condition. - 18

Not bad for a show around as long as it's been. Of course these guys work and stay active as opposed to having a lot of free time to screw around. Plus, they were a PBS show. Different type of workplace.
Eh, nevermind...
