Alexandra Leaving

This week was half-term school holidays week, one of those "madly busy but happy" school holidays weeks with sleepovers, shopping trips and working from home . I have been also madly obsessed with Danish show "Forbrydelsen" ("The Crime" or "The Killing") , of which I watched 20 one-hour episodes in 4 days (a feat even for me). I am still winding down from the ending, but I am happy to say that I guessed the killer in the first episode. This very intelligent whodunit/cross political shenanigans story is already being re-made by Fox.

I have remembered to look through the Russian holiday pictures. I made some pictures of old churches and buildings in the city where my mum and dad live, Serpuhov (my sister lives in Moscow itself). It was one of those gray winter days when the sky is the same colour as the snow:

There are so much of it and it keeps falling - it is very possible that the Yorkshire weather forecast is correct and we are going to get 8 inches of snow soon. I LOVE it! (But am slightly worrying how I am going to pick my daughter up from school)



( SNOWWWWWWWW! )
