Discovered a filmed version of Guy de Maupassant's 'Boule de Suif' dubbed in English from 2011. Lasts about an hour with prepaid adverts. Set during the end of #FrancoPrussianwar Worth watching. The short story is sadder. #Guydemaupassant

Fellow Archers listeners. Does anyone else look up the agricultural terms mentioned in the programme. Or am I the only one? I did a websearch for 'pig wallow' after Rex and Alice's conversation last night. Learnt that pigs have no functional sweat glands. #TheArchers, #Pigwallow,
As Thomas Hardy was born on 2nd June 1840, thought that would share some thoughts about my favourite Hardy novel 'Return of the Native' . #Victorian #19thcentury, #ThomasHardy bleakchesneywold.blogspot.com/2023/08/thom...
I find Ambridge a bit creepy with so many characters gone silent, Denise, Jim, Mick, Joy, Freddie, Vince, Elizabeth, Kenton, and m'darling Jolene. What's goin' on ? #TheArchers
