I have found that season 1 (at least) is available on YouTube.  I have 
e-mailed my local PBS station (in upper NY state but covers a whole chunk of 
eastern Ontario in its programming and audience catchment area) to ask if 
they have aired it, or are likely to.

I’ve been watching both Murdoch Mysteries and Miss Fisher’s Murder 
Mysteries here in the UK.  They are shown on Alibi and Drama channels on Sky.  
Waiting for Series 3 of Miss Fisher, the Murdoch Mysteries are being shown 
daily and we are up to Series 5 at the moment.

My daughter is watching season 3 of Miss Fisher's mysteries on Netflix, so 
seasons 1 and 2 should be there as well.

Another good series is ROSEMARY AND THYME.  Contemporary, and fun.

Re: [lace] Bone bobbins

2015-09-24 Thread H M Clarke
Thank you, Brenda, and the other kind people who helped to answer my question. 
I hadn't thought about the bulbous nature of the continentals. It is 
interesting to read though that there were some bone continentals. 

I wonder whether it was the fact that bone was used for English bobbins that 
encouraged all the decorations? The midlands bobbins in particular are so much 
more elaborate while continentals are much more uniform and utilitarian. 

As for my collection? There are many, including family, who would like to get 
them but for now they remain with me. One day, I might be able to deal with my 
pain to the extent that hobbies are possible again - no harm in dreaming, 
right?!

There were few, if any bone continental bobbins.  I guess that’s mostly because 
even the heavier breeds of cattle around two or three centuries ago didn’t have 
bones thick enough to form into the bulbous shape that most continental bobbins 
have.
