Downton

Don't be defeatist, dear.  It's very middle class.

So, Leslie and Kirk convinced me I should watch Downton Abbey.  Of course I had to mock it (see image above).  However, it is addictive.  In fact, I found myself - after watching the end of the second season - going over my list of chores for the next day in my head.  And I found myself doing this by alternating the Irish and British accents of the service class.

Does this mean I want to be a member of the service class or I just wish I had members of the service class to do my chores?  Probably neither.  It probably means I watched too much Downton in one shot.
