Mad Men Marathon

Getting through all 13 episodes of series 1 in three days (the length of time the DVD shop loans it for) was tough. It rained yesterday so that gave me a little more time. I dozed off in a few of them but I think I managed to see most of it in the end.

Excellent television.

So now I'm off to reserve Series 2 at the library, where I might have to wait a bit longer to get it, but then I can have it for three weeks instead of three days.

When we go to return Series 1 to the DVD shop I am going to get some more child-friendly DVDs. I feel like I have been hogging the television and the kids should get a turn. Watching that many hours of TV in such a short time always makes me feel very sluggish and in need of several hours of swimming or walking.

I just finished watching series 3 - but it took me a couple of weeks!

Yes, every so often I have this crazy moment where I think that watching an entire TV series in three days is possible. It is, but I always feel like very sloth-like afterwards. So it is back to the local library...I am third in the queue for series 2 so it may be a while before I see it!
