For Downton Abbey Fans

Three years before the 1924 setting of the 5th season finale last night, Moto Guzzi was founded in Mandello del Lario Italy!

I watched last night.  It was a nice finale to season five.

It's a wonderfully produced series.

For the gearheads among us, they've got some great cars on display every episode!

I wonder if Lady Mary will have an affair with the Bentley race driver?   I can foresee a terrible accident at LeMans.

I can't wait!  A little automobile racing thrown in would be awesome!
