Day TEN. How did I miss the premiere??
How did I miss the Downton Abbey premiere?!? I live in London for crying out loud you think the premiere would be bellowed from the rooftops, but no. I simply forgot. Ugh. Sad day. Even trying to find it on the internet here is a pain. Nevertheless, Day Ten. Sunday. Church here is fasinating. Everyone has a different accent, no two are alike. The first speaker was from Mexico, who is married to an Englishman. The second speaker is from Columbia and is Married to a Bulgarian. Third speaker, from England somewhere not from around here. In Sunday School the teacher had 10 scriptures she wanted read ....it was so cool to hear everyone's accent. I didnt try to hide mine with a bad british accent, I just was full on American. I wonder if my accent sounds as cool to them, as theirs do to me.
After church chatted with my flattmate who got me this place to begin with. Somehow we got on the conversation of Chirstmas. Once she found out I wasnt going home for Christmas, she said, "Well then you are coming to Wales with us!" Apparently she and 4 friends are all meeting up in Wales where 2 are going to school and invited me to come along. So we'll see how that goes. A Welsh Christmas in the land of ancestors.
Our Relief Society President told us that there was a Single Adult Fireside. Me, being a hermit for years and my flatmate supportive in the adventure, decided to go. It was at the Hyde Park Chapel in London, so a 45 minute tube ride each way and the 75 minute meeting took up the evening....and probably helped with me forgetting about Downton Abbey.
Had lovely chats with the Parents and Mel & Co this evening. Then I wrote my recipes up nicer than my chicken scratch and off to bed. Winds in the east.....a weather change is starting to get things colder......
