Scones and Crackers: Let's talk about: Miss Potter
http://sconesandcrackers.blogspot.com/2015/04/lets-talk-about-miss-potter.html
Friday, April 24, 2015. Let's talk about: Miss Potter. Is one of my favorite movies. It tells the life story of Beatrix Potter, author of the Peter Rabbit books and many other wonderful stories. As much as I have always loved Beatrix Potter's books, I didn't know much about her as a person. This movie lets us in on her story. We see Beatrix as a young girl already telling stories and drawing her beautiful watercolor pictures. Played by adorable Lucy Boynton). He is as enchanted by her books as we are.

Monday, June 29, 2015. Let's talk about: Wimbledon. With the Wimbledon tennis tournament starting up today I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the event. Wimbledon is the oldest tennis tournament in the world, established in 1877. When it was first started the entry fee was just one shilling. Right now tickets range (based on day and event) from 375 pounds to just under 4,000 pounds. It is named after the London suburb where it first started. To win a set, you must win six games. A score ...

Daniel Radcliffe is the Younger Doctor. The first episode begins with the Older Doctor at his desk looking at his journal's.
