I was Anne Elliot so now I've invented a tragic past to mystify and delight my colleagues. Miss Elliot is good though I thought I would end up as Mary B so relief all round.<br /><br />Your Queen presents are wondeful but (I did search your blog but probably not too well) I couldn't see if you've been given or acquired yet The Audience by Peter Morgan. I bought Alice and Peter on the enthusiam of your review.

What fun we will have in July 2017 - I'm planning my frock already!<br />How about a game of 'Mix and Match'? Make pairs of lovers across the books - for example: Mr Wickham marries Isabella Thorpe or Willoughby pairs up with Miss Bingley. Oh, this is fun - try it yourself. I wonder how they would have got on together???OVWnoreply@blogger.com
