Watched


My Little Pony Friendship is Magic
Season 2 (finished), Season 3 (started)
Anime, English version
10/10
(The Season 2 finale was spectacular and for the first time ever the Season 3, 2 part starting episode plot wasn't too scary for me!)





Strawberry Shortcake Berry Bitty Adventures:  Season 3
Anime, English version
10/10E
(Got used to there being a boy in the show - he wasn't in it lots, and was sad when it ended because there aren't any more episodes of this super cute, friend focused show!)





AKB0048
REWATCH! - Anime, Japanese version
10/10E
(Having not watched this for a month it seems rather spectacular!)





Shugo Chara!
REWATCH! - Anime, Japanese version
10/10E
(Even though I'd got episode 60 something before Ramadan, I decided to start all over again - 1st ep is SO cute!)





Neo Angelique
REWATCH! - Anime, Japanese version
10/10
(Seen episode 5 when Angelique wavers under the pressure everyone puts on her; she gets there in the end.)





Yurumates3Dei
Anime, Japanese version
9/10
(This random slice of life anime is less than 10mins long yet is extremely funny!!)





Holby City
Drama, English version
10/10E
(Apart from the very end this was the funniest episode ever! I love how the writers team intense plots with simply ludicrous events to balance the tone of the show...)





The Cruise: A Life at Sea
Documentary
10/10
(Life on board a cruise ship is varied - especially if it takes you through scary areas with real pirates which require special drills for all on board in case of an encounter and the presence of both more security on board with the military near by...)





Casualty
Drama, English version
10/10E
(Like its spin off series Holby City, Casualty was equally funny.  The new doctor is great because I dislike her so much that I love her!)








Craft

This week has consisted of winding yarn from a massive ball into manageable smaller balls. I'm making blankets for some of my family as presents - I'd show you their favourite colours because they are too young to visit my blog ^o^ , but will keep it a surprise for now.  Will be winding more yarn next week too.
