I have just finished the first series of Afterlife on Netflix with Ricky Gervais. I'm not usually a fan of his, but it's quite good.

The first two series were very good, the 3rd series didn't quite have the pathos of the previous series, and I thought there was too much swearing in it.
But, judge for yourself.

A belated good morning folks,
Another early start to take granddaughter to school, back via Poole for a bit of shopping ( I treated Mrs Tenkaykev to a bottle of Conker Gin which was on offer in Sainsbury ) A few years ago I gathered some Teazle seeds from the banks of the Stour and planted them in the back garden now have a regular visit from Goldfinches at this time of year. It's very mild, I've seen a couple of large bumble Bees over the last couple of days 🐝🐝
Time for coffee and a sandwich ☕️🥪

My son and grandsons said the same thing. They usually use all the best materiel in the first and second series, then run out of ideas but Still do another series.

It will Indeed. Leave it for 10 minutes then rub the excess off

She would probably jump up and crash into the window. Lol.

She’s funny on the laminate floor in the hall and is like the cartoons where she is running but her feet are skidding.
