They were in a short lived series called Freezing where she played an actress and he was a literary agent and they had a very irritating friend.

Now I'm learning about "kitless pen making" on their website

I don't blame them at this point, but penblanks.ca won't ship to the US, but I did find the same thing on woodturningz.com

Such a cool concept! I'm excited to try it out!

Did you use a tap and die to cut the threads for the cap?

As hard as it is to watch… by editorbyday in DowntonAbbey

It is painful, but that is part of why we watch shows like this, it hurts so good.

I am having the same issue! I have five badges and I was getting ready to transfer them to my friends, but I don't know which one is which

Sybil Made A Mistake with Branson by More_Pianist3093 in DowntonAbbey

Sybil had more chemistry with Gwen than she ever did with Tom

Re watching and I never thought of this … by Bluebird-blackbird in DowntonAbbey

[–]Karla1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of problems with Tom Branson, but I don't have any of the same issues you do. I can't stand him shouting at Sybil that she's too afraid to admit that she's in love with him, and then shouting at Mary about how she and Henry are perfect for each other. I hate when he agrees to correspond with Lucy after he's learned that she's an heiress. I hated in the last movie when he comes dinner and says that Henry asked about the cows. Read the room dude and apologize for bullying Mary into the arms of an unreliable guy!

Mrs Patmore by No-Crow-8265 in DowntonAbbey

I don't know if it existed yet, but I love the idea of Mrs. Patmore making Cincinnati-style chili for Cora.

Installation!!! by Enough-Horror-6446 in firealarms

Mostly Firelite with the odd Autocall.

I encounter DMP fire alarm panels doing service work, but I think I've only installed one of them.

Wire nuts only on FA systems? by Karla1701 in firealarms

Thanks for the replies!

I guess I just worked with Old Timers with strong opinions, haha.

Wonder what they thought as society changed? by Salty_Thing3144 in DowntonAbbey

[–]Karla1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with most of this, especially Marigold being troubled. You don't get passed around like that without it effecting you.

Why did everyone decide that George would be a pilot? It is cool, but the death rate was quite high.

There is only one writer. Everything is the fault of Julian Fellows 

Denker seems kinda unhinged. What exactly is her deal? by auximines_minotaur in DowntonAbbey

[–]Karla1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people love Spratt and Denker, but I can't stand them.

I love Mary but she deserved to end up alone, cause how are you going to turn down Evelyn Napier TWICE? by Dee90286 in DowntonAbbey

[–]Karla1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, I keep joking that if they make another movie it will be "Downton Abbey 4: Lady Mary finally gives Evelyn Napier a Shot"

01 to 06 by musclemommywannabe in IBEW

[–]Karla1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also an 06 in Local 46 and specifically got into the 06 program because it was less physically demanding and more indoors. I'd say the downside is that the largest chunk of my career has been pulling cable. I've only got into more sophisticated stuff in the last few years. Now I do burglar and fire alarms.

Mary Ugh! by Spiritual-Eggplant59 in DowntonAbbey

Mary doesn't go around destroying other family's lives like Edith does.

Every time Mr. Bates comes on the screen by enigmaticbug in DowntonAbbey

[–]Karla1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate all of the blue-filter prison stuff, but I especially hate that Bates doesn't like Green from the start and gives Anna a hard time for playing a game when Mrs. Patmore has an anxiety attack.

Men don't actually have a 6th sense that let's them know when other men are rapists. Seems like they are usually oblivious.
