Sun Downing

(see the introduction for yesterday's post)

Discussing the Downton Abbey series-

Mother: Doesn't the family lose their fortunes?

Moi: The series hasn't ended yet.  It's still going on, so no, the family doesn't lose their fortune. This isn't based on a book or anything.

Mother: So the guy who wrote A Tale of Two Cities didn't write this?

Moi: Charles Dickens?  Did he predict the future and write about a family in the early 1910s and 20s?  No, he did not.

Mother: Yeah, I thought that that was strange.
