It's over

My hubbie and I enjoy those rare moments of relaxing, a particular way. When all the chores are done, we curl up on our sofas (yes each of us has our own) wrap up in blankets and turn on our favourite telly program. Sheer bliss.

Recently we have just switched to DVD's as the adverts on the TV just drive us insane, I mean every 7 minutes really is unnecessary.

We tend to watch a box set of DVD's over a period of months. We look forward to each one, like a teenager would a night out. Oh how times have changed.

My sis sponsors our habit. She sends us great British drama series or sitcoms and she has excellent taste. This year we have gone through Life on Mars, Sherlock and now Stella.

All top-tastic. Thanks sis.

However, Stella finished last night. Part 10 was watched. It's now over.

We loved it. Just fun, light entertainment with a touch of reality and plenty of laughs. We looked forward to it and savoured each one. We only put it on when we were both in the mood and we had time to snuggle up. Once we even watched two in one night. That was really decadent.

And now it is over. It was great. We loved every moment.

We are sad it's over, but soon it's Christmas, so I better be nice to my sister and maybe next year we get a new series. Hint hint Sister Sue!

So what do you do to relax? Do you have a special routine with your loved one? Is it as boring as mine? Go on inspire me, make me jealous. Make me wish I had more energy at 9pm!
