Wallander + Line of Duty - Writing Wednesday

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, 

 For some weird reason, for the past year, I've been really getting into watching detective series. It started off with a bit of Vera on the weekends and then it ended with me getting hooked on watching Line of Duty. I now have four detective series that I can confidently say I have been obsessed over and they are: Vera, Sherlock, Wallander, and Line of Duty. Why I've suddenly gotten into this series is beyond me. Maybe I just find the process of solving murder mysteries really cool, or maybe I just find this particular area of the police force really interesting, I really don't know. However, what I do know is, they are very addictive to watch and if you're stuck on what to watch during lockdown, I would definitely recommend watching these detective series. 

 Wallander is what people like to call, a Nordic Noire and that is because it is quite dark and depressing and it also happens to be a Swedish series. There are two versions of Wallander, the English version and the Swedish version. I think it's easier to watch the English version because you don't have to put on subtitles but the Swedish version is really good. Basically, if you like watching a detective solving really dark murder mysteries, then Wallander is for you. 
However, Line of Duty is also pretty good too because it's about corruption in the police force, which is something completely different. It's about this group called AC12 (anti-corruption unit 12), who track down offending members of the police force and try to solve crime in their own sector. There's a lot of red herrings and the story is really good. I would definitely recommend watching this as well!

Be careful with these series because you will end up binge-watching them. I said I wasn't addicted until me and my family began watching Wallander and Line of Duty nearly every evening for the past two weeks!😂

      I've heard of Grantchester but I've never watched it. Perhaps I should!

"They shall not grow old,as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them,nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them." To the 60 people that died during WW1 in my village. Many of them were either buried in the location that they fell or were missing and never found.  "Their name liveth for evermore."

In Flanders fields- John Mccrae In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses,row on row, That Mark our place; and in the sky The larks,still bravely singing,fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived,felt dawn,saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved,and now we lie In Flanders fields.

Hello Jujubears and welcome to another blog post, Today, I am going to be doing something a little bit different. I've been on the hunt for something new to study. I looked up 'interesting things to study' and it came up with: How to pickle your own vegetables (?!) Learn a new language ( I am bilingual) Learn to code (been doing enough of that already) Find out more about microbiology (too complicated) I just wanted to find out more about a particular subject. So then I searched up 'interesting SUBJECTS to study'. It came up with this: Mathematics (I'm on holiday)  English (again, I'm on holiday) Complete study and practice of geography ( again,again, I'm on holiday) So I thought. I've been really enjoying history. Let's search up some fun history topics to study. It came up with this. Korean war (meh) Franco-Spanish war (mmh) The Crusades (maybe later) Holocaust (interesting, I've been studying that) So as y

Entering the real world - Lifestyle Monday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  I've been writing blog posts for a while now and a lot of them have been about school and my life as a student. I started writing casually at the age of 12 years old when I was nearing the end of year 8, and then I finished my final few student-life blog posts in May of this year, when I finished my IB studies as a year 13 student. Who knows if I will return to education in the future, but right now I am definitely getting a taste of the real world.  I didn't expect to get offered anything so soon after my exams finished but recently I applied for a job with a punting company in Cambridge. I applied because I wanted to get the job in time for the summer when there would be lots of tourists coming to Cambridge, and I also saw on the job advert that the position would be very suitable for young people taking a gap year, so I thought I would jump at the chance of giving it a go. The position I applied for was to be a history
