The video was so interesting. Enjoyed it. How funny Vanessa. Reminds me of the PBS British shows I watch.

Vanessa, I totally heard you! I adore England and all things England!I started watching the BBC on PBS when I was a teenager.
I have the Charles Dickens Christmas Village!Many different editions of a Christmas Carol.When my husband and I met in 1971, we both had a great love for England. We both loved all kinds of music, and we lived through the British Invasion, some of the best Music that is still being played on oldies radio.We fell in Love with British TV on PbS, "Are you Being served"? Was our favorite! They mention Haberdashery in the opening of the show!
It's on our bucket list to go to England!me and my husband talk to each other in cockney English
An example of what I say to him the morning is:
Ello Govna, would ya like a spot of Tea this very morning or a bit of Bangers and Mash! Here is a part of my Dickens village, now over 25 years old.

Well put Vanessa, I wish we were all together to have a Cuppa and a Seeing Circle. What fun we would have and probably not be able to stop laughing!

Thank you so much Wanda Sue.
