I'm such a youtube-addict

My dvd’s from UK has not yet arrived. But my Becoming Jane-dvd came last week as I said in my last post. I am so happy! I really need an Austen-day with L as soon as my movies from UK arrives. :-D I have found a new TV-adaptation to love, North & South, a Elizabeth Gaskell adaptation (on youtube, of course!). Richard Armitage (perhaps more known as sir Guy of Gisborne in Robin Hood) plays John Thornton, and does it beautifully! I just realised that the novel has been standing on my book shelf for some time now without being read. Perhaps it is time to read it now? If I remember correctly I bought it when I lived in UK eight years ago in hope of it being the novel behind the 80-ies series North and South with Patrick Swayze, but to my disappointment it was not and I put it away. But now I’m going to give it another chance.

Otherwise nothing new in my life. Work is finally calming down!

We have begun planning for my friend Micke’s fiancée’s hen night. It is my first hen night ever so I am finding everything very interesting! We have lots of ideas that I am not going to tell you here since there is a slight chance that she might nose around here… ;)

I think we are some kind of kindred souls in this department, dearest Maria, ‘cause I’m also such a big YT-Addict. I have to blame Mr Thornton and RA for my addiction ...I am spending a bit too much time lately trying to get up-to-date with all his work, interviews and YT fan-videos : -))

Thank you again for telling me about your website. I will come to visit whenever I can break the spell this dark-tall-handsome-brooding Thornton-Armitage has cast upon me.

I can’t wait to see more pictures with your little Peanut – looks soooooo cute and peaceful in your tummy. Have another 51 days of pain-free happy pregnancy!

Happy B-day to your “darling” and many more to come!!!!!!!
