The Cottage is all a-twitter
because it is the first of the new year
and almost time
for the sixth, and final, season of
Downton Abbey
to begin.
The Grand Duchess of Snow
is setting the pace
for the opening act.
You may remember her
from last January
when she was referred to
as a Foster Farm reject
by none other than
the usually complimentary Captain.
This was a very unlikely situation
but he is
still sticking to his story!
However,
the insults just roll off of her
like water off a duck's back
and she still maintains
her calm and aristocratic demeanor.
She is aware
of her station in life
and she stands tall.
Lord Victor Snow
Lady Victoria Snow
Also,
a part of the party
will be Lord Victor Snow
and his elegantly beautiful wife,
Lady Victoria.
They are a handsome couple
and always fulfill their obligations
with charm and grace.
Of course,
there are the downstairs groups
that can be seen in various places
in the Cottage
during the month of January.
They have been
tidying up the Cottage,
putting away the Christmas decorations
in record time
so that they all might convene
in front of the telly
to watch
the long awaited festivities.
The nanny
is plumb tuckered out,
as she has been working long and hard
to teach the Snow twins
the perfect manners
they must present
as this will be their first time
allowed as part of the story...
if this doesn't work out,
she might be going
from the frying pan
into the fire!
Let me introduce to you...
Master Peter Snow
Mistress Penelope Snow
...otherwise known
by their loving parents as:
The Snow P's.
They are all dressed
in their finest
and are waiting for Albert
to bring the car round.
"Master Peter,
you must put that snowball down
before we commence our journey."
Downton Abbey
begins their final season on
Sunday, January 3,
at 9:00 PM
on Masterpiece Classics.
Check your local listings for time in your area.
Hope everyone
had a Merry Christmas
and my wish for you
is a
happy
and
healthy
New Year.
...Judy...
