And that is what my friend Sarah at work said today. She being English and thus funny beyond believe without her being aware of it, decided to keep a record of events. The Event feeling bad after having eaten certain foods. But not liking boring logs, she gave it the Jane Austen twist. And I found this so funny I had to share it with you. As an Austen-holic I can value people that make everyday mundane things funny, or should I say, witty.
ITV just finished their Austen Season and after seeing a horrible Billy Piper play Fanny Price in Mansfield Park (MP) I was happy with the very good Sally Hawkins as Anne Elliot in Persuasion. Still have Northanger Abbey to watch. It's taped and awaiting the right moment.
On the hero's I can say (again) that I was not very impressed with the guy playing Edward in MP and quite liked the Captain in P. Sigh. Jane is my hero really... if only I could write like that. Or another so I could read it. Ah.. dreams dreams.
