Watching PBS. I happened upon the most amazing show. A real life Gosford Park. A truthful Manor House. A series - Windsor Castle - A Royal Year. Jobs I never even imagined. (A Castle Flagman - his job is to raise the flag when the queen arrives at Windsor and takes it down when she leaves.) People who take their job so seriously. And do it serving the queen. It is so foreign and amazing to me. Like: A man whose job it is to light all the fires in the castle. The men who take care of the furniture - dusting and repairing. I wish I had started writing down their titles as I watched, long titles for amazing and specific jobs. Inspiring.
