Despite failing to watch a single episode of the first series, I discovered Lark Rise to Candleford at Christmas, and have been watching every episode since, having fallen in love unreservedly. It is, in fact, the only program I have been watching regularly, (I did watch Hunter, but that was only two episodes, and I have only just started watching Victorian Farm).
At present, I am avidly shipping Dorcas Lane/James Dowland, and started bouncing during tonight's episode. (I also keep getting ideas for PG-13 James/Dorcas Wedding Night fic, but that less said about that the better.)

I am developing a fondness for the French side of the French Revolution, and the Napoleonic Wars, and would like to read some books about it, which are not too British biased. Could any of you recommend some?

I have done it! Flowers and champagne to
ankaret, who provided instructions! (Why yes, I am easily pleased)

ONE DAY CONTENT STRIKEFor one day,
Friday, March 21, make no posts. Make no comments. Let there be NO new content added to LJ.
SUP obviously does not realize that Basic users have given something of value to them, that it is content that drives the site.
So, for one 24-hour period, from midnight GMT to midnight GMT, let's see how many people we can get to pledge to contribute NO CONTENT.
This will create a permanent downward spike in the daily-posts statistics, a permanent reminder of the power of the userbase.
Full information at
The Fox's Den.
SPREAD THE WORD!

What is the correct terminology for a Private Mental Health Unit? Is it just 'Private Mental Health Unit'?

The cat just killed (or at least maimed) my father's laptop.

The New Year was spent in London, and I saw the fireworks from Temple and Arch. I'm assured they were fabulous, but rain, mist, and smoke obscured most of the later ones, which meant that the rousing chorus, led by my father, of 'Will the man at the front please put down his umberella' before they began was rather wasted.
Also, is it just me, or is it really stupid to have sparklers going in a crowd of 30,00 people.

My little sister has revealed that, trusting in the Amazon delivery service, she hasn't even ordered my present yet, I've lost half of her present, and we are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the gas man, and the restoration of heat, and food that hasn't been cooked in microwave/toaster.
Joyeux Noel!

The effortless meme (on my part, at least):
I know very little about some of the people on my friends list.
Some of you I know relatively well. Some I know very well; one or two of you I even know in RL.
Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you for your interest in my words.
But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself? It can be any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...they listen in rapture to the love-music of she-turnips." I might feel compelled to mock your musical taste, but I'll certainly remember you.
I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal and see what gems of knowledge appear.

by a kitchen cupboard door. It fell onto my head. I am, apparently, uninjured, if irritated at the lack of sympathy shown by the APs. My mother had an excuse- she was moving the cupboard door. My father does not.

Does anyone know good biographies of Kit Marlowe?

What would be the Italian equivalent of the word 'Dowager' and would it come before or after the title? i.e. Would it be the Dowager Duchess, or the Duchess Dowager (translated)?

A short family discussion over dinner has concluded that my father is Mr. Snevilicci, I am Miss Snevilicci, my sister is the Infant Phenomenon, and my mother is Madam Mantellini.
