I've never managed to find out what that theme song is, if it's a piece of classical music (as opposed to "just a theme song someone wrote for the show").<BR/><BR/>Sorry about your aunt.

And yes, there are always the good things to keep in mind.<BR/><BR/>Carl - I've loved Anne for more years than I care to mention; they are still charming. Yes, I used to watch the BBC series which was excellent. I read the first Herriot soon after it was published and still smile when I think about some of the stories in the various books. I think I will add them to my Netflix cue since it has been so long since I've either read or watched them!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-16621942992008631812007-04-17T12:57:00.000-05:002007-04-17T12:57:00.000-05:00So sorry to hear about your aunt JenClair.

Have you seen them? They are all available on Netflix and I first got them all on video from my local library. Great stuff.Carl V.
