I know it was on facebook within the past week or so, but there was a blog post about surviving visiting small British villages, like not going to fetes, staying away from the vicar, stuff like that [that one could get from watching or reading British cozy mysteries] Anybody got a link, I want to show it to mrAru =) Thanks \ ---

> [@Novelty\_Bobble](#): > > [this](http://midsomermurders.org/surviving.htm)? No, unfortunately, it wasn’t illustrated and sort of combined all the cozies - Father Brown, Midsommer, Miss Marple, and a touch of Peter Wimsey. Darn, though this one is good =) ---
