That's lovely squiggle, you'll greatly enjoy it. What I liked about the book was that you got a small glimpse into what happened after the wedding 

Summer, poor you, I hope you feel better soon

Squiggle, I hope you love re-reading Pride and Prejudice I assume that you, like me, have no intention of ever seeing that parody with zombies which was released recently

I posted here not long ago and it disappeared 

Oh! We'll never mind...

Moonie, I wonder what happened to your disappearing post

I hope your sore throat improves quickly (seems to be a bug going around as Summer is suffering as well)

Ooh I'm looking forward to it even more now I was just thinking this morning they could have made a couple more episodes.  It's so long since I read it, and now I come to think about it, it was in another century that I read it!

No I won't As you know I love the BBC adaption which I thought was just perfect.  I watched the Keira Knightley film which was OK but no match.

I would have been very surprised if you had intended to see that zombie version As I've mentioned before I can't watch your favourite version as I don't like Jennifer Ehle's smile (she inherited that from her mother Rosemary Harris). My favourite Jane Austen adaptation is Ang Lee's Sense and Sensibility.

I'm still getting phone calls from that fraudulent £8000 grant criminals. I did block it so they don't get through. Doing some looking into it the way it works is that I would be given another phone number to ring (a London number). If I was to insist on being given an address I would be an address of the UK government grant office in High Holborn.

If I was to ring that number, if I got through, I would eventually be told that I needed to pay a fee (say £200/£300) to be able to release that £8000 and given instructions as to how to pay it. As you know, anyone who does that has lost the money they've paid and would never get the £8000.

I did some research into the High Holborn address. The address is genuine and a number of businesses do operate from it. But what I discovered it is also possible to pay around £85 to get a virtual office with that address. That means that someone can operate from anywhere in the world but give the appearance of being based in London. All calls would go through to wherever they really are based.

Good morning foggy & drizzle here today. I don't feel any better but I did sleep well, and I don't feel any worse  

 

how ow are you all this morning?

Aww, I hope it's a 48hour bug and you feel better soon.

Good morning everyone, hazy cloud again but still a nice morning, it is cold though.

 

Oh poor you Summer, I hope you feel better soon.  I've gone into Pride & Prejudice overload and have ordered a beautiful hardback copy, I don't think I've read it since my teens but I fancy reading it again.

 

Enjoy your day everyone

Much as I love my Kindle, nothing beats a real book.

Hi Moonie.

With our love of crime drama, we ought to be able to solve the puzzle of the missing post.

There has been a series up here about Scotland's scammers. The lengths these awful people will go to to scam others, is terrible. In some cases, they ruin lives.

It's a good job you are savvy, El, and don't fall for this rubbish.

I need to google Jennifer Ehle's smile, to see why you don't like it.

 I bet he isn't either 

Evening I'm tucked up in bed with a hot water bottle and a hot toddie (lemon/honey/brandy). My bug has fully evolved into a streaming cold! To cheer myself up I've put pride & prejudice on  

I'm at the part of the Netherfield ball.

moonie, I very much hope you don't have the same bug as me  

El, sorry but I love Jennifer Ehle, I remember being in awe of her as a youngster and for me, she's the only Elizabeth Bennett  

the actress who plays Jane in the Kiera Knightly film version did impress me, she deserves credit for that  

I wouldn't fancy the zombie version, but I do like Lily James who is in it.

Mr Yogi managed to remove the hairs from the door but it will need "sorting" tomorrow.

Lol She was fine. I think the hairs were pulled out when they stuck to the paint on the door, rather than the paint sticking onto her.
