Rome

My goodness I enjoyed Rome. This second HBO/BBC series was brilliant, much better than the first and I'm very sorry there won't be another one. Everything was brought to a satisfactory, if bittersweet, conclusion.

In other news, it continues to rain. To date we've experinced two days of sunshine since the beginning of May and there seems to be no sign that we'll see it again. It's incredible to think that this time last year we were baking in the hottest temperatures on record. *Sigh* Not fun as most of the schools in the U.K have now broken up for summer and my two were really looking forward to paddling pools and Ice cream. Hopefully, Cornwall will be drier when we go down on Friday.

I've finally sent my partial off to HM&B. It will be interesting to see if I've done enough to get another full request or If I've completely missed the mark this time. Fingers crossed!
