Rituals

I have been thinking about rituals today, and in particular Sunday rituals. I love Sundays and there are several activities I like to do that really enforce the feeling of relaxing at the end of the weekend, but one in particular I am missing this Sunday morning is The Waltons!

Now say what you will but I have always loved this show, which I watched with my sister as a child, and as I grew up and it was moved to Sunday mornings I carried on watching it.

Without out being blasphemous it was kind of like going to church! A healthy dose or moral fibre with the added bonus of characters you loved and had grown up with.

An old flat mate a I used to get up in our PJ's on Sunday mornings, make a cooked breakfast and then curl up in our duvets on the couch to watch the show.

It has not been on for some years now and I do miss it. I may have to treat myself to the box set one of these days as I am sure it is something you can buy now.

When ever I see one of the actors in another film I instantly feel a bond with them. I saw Richard Thomas (John Boy Walton) in a film once where he played a baddy and it totally threw me, it was so out of character, the perfect example of type casting!
