Re: An oldie but goodie
If you really like British murder mysteries, you ought to investigate BritBox and Acorn. They are the overseas distributors of BBC and ITV and are available as standalone apps or through Amazon Prime.
If you ever get tired of genteel drawing room mysteries try their police procedurals like Silent Witness (23 seasons and still going strong!), No Offense, London Kills and others. There are also a bunch of Australian shows: My Life is Murder (starring Xenia Warrior Princess lol), Mystery Road and the 3 Jack Irish movies, the series is not as good. From New Zealand comes the 6 seasons of the Brokenwood Mysteries which is a sort of antipodean Midsomer Murders with a great cast of quirky characters.
On a lighter note we have been enjoying a bunch of sitcoms too: Plebs, Benidorm, The Goes Wrong Show, Raised by Wolves and a bunch more.
And our favorite of all time: This Farming Life, a beautifully filmed 4 season and counting documentary about small farms in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Give it a try, you will not regret it.Michael & Beth

Re: An oldie but goodie
I'm more of a Sherlock Holmes guy, but I think you might enjoy a series I recently discovered, out of Canada. It's called The Murdock Mysteries. It takes place around the 1890's, is written well, and has high production values.https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1091909/

Re: An oldie but goodie
It is funny how age affects your perspective. I started off with a " Cigarette " boat in the 1990's and progressed to my current boat a Hatt 61 CPMY and this boat is looking very good at this point in my life. This is a well thought out, purpose built vessel constructed to very high standards even for today. What a great ride.

Re: An oldie but goodie
I started this post with a great boat......now I have what can only be the opposite of a great boat. It's a pity that 1.25 million buys an ugly boat with what looks like Ikea interiors.....what say you all?

Re: An oldie but goodie
Speaking of this style of boat, has anyone ever seen in person, or for sale, the Hatteras 74' (I think) massively overbuilt trawlers; 4 were built I believe? I thought one was purchased by someone from Boeing in Seattle, years ago, and upgraded to be even more massive.
