library books

ok, so.....i went by the library for the second time in less than a week, to return what i borrowed on saturday and to look for ore...i had borrowed 2 films....2 days in paris with julie delpy and friends with money with jennifer aniston....found both lacking......my spouse insisted that the only reason to watch the first was because it took place in paris......mostly it was talk,talk,talk about infidelity.....oh my.....i brought home 2 british made-for-tv movies...the first is leo mckern as rumpole of the bailey in what appeared to be the film that inspired the series....mckern still had dark hair and he did not have all of his side-kicks that included phillida erskine-brown.....she for whom we named the cat.....if for no other reason than a rumpole rerun was on pbs when daddy brought home the kitten....and she had a hyphenated last name.....i started to read one of the mysteries i brought home, and found it neither cozy nor charming.....same with the second...and i put them down.....i was not in the mood for hard-boiled and sassy....speaking of rumpole and the old bailey.....our middle child is now in london...safely i would suppose.......and possibly eating cheese and pickle sandwiches in pubs....rumpole ate his with a shot of rum with a guinness chaser.....and then went on back to court.....i'd have had to take a nap after such a lunch......i do happen to have a collection of rumpole cases upstairs.....might be better than the borrowed hardboil.......
