“Never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
Okay, so maybe that was actually Sir Winston Churchill.
Whatev. Tomato tomato, potato potato, Churchill Zadge.
The Zadge, even before she became a British Aristocrat last Friday during Denver’s snowstorm and Downton Abbey extravaganza, liked this quote quite a lot — oh, Carson, do bring a spot of tea — and all that it represented, except that she is alarmingly impatient and doesn’t like the extra “u” in the British spelling of “honor”, so she usually just ends up shouting, in a nebulous Mid-Atlantic U.S. non-accent, Never, Never, Never Give Up.
She fancies it a very fine mantra for her life.
And so apparently does this little black and white scamp:
That is what Sir Winston and Lady Zadge were talking about!
And yes, she promises to lose her newly acquired aristocratic airs and get back to dropping the F bomb next week.
Cheerio!

–>I got hooked last night on Downton Abbey. The husband is taking classes for his master’s online and so I have the big screen to myself at night. I watched three episodes in a row and had to force myself to go to bed because it was a school night.
You were right, the clothing is amazing too.
Now Lady Zadge, would you care for a spot of tea?
Awww, that poor little guy…so close and yet so far. I do think that lady with the mask could have been a little gentler!
Ooooh!! Just getting caught up with the Zadge after a week of helping the newborn adjust to this loud, noisy place we call earth.
I now want to go home and get caught up with DA. Sounds like something I would like.
How’s about you throw a little English accent on that F bomb?
Please get back to swearing, taking pictures of boots, and writing about creepy men you meet through online dating adventures.
Because these are really what I live for these days.
Oh, and one day I swear to god someone is gonna recognize me in the grocery store.
Winston said tomato or tomato, I can’t remember.
Spot on, Lady Zadge!
Don’t like the ‘u’ in ‘honour’? What about ‘behaviour’ or ‘colour’ or ‘analyse’?
AAAAHHHHHHHHH
