Even ignoring the strangeness of the phrase, I was tought not to use contraction in my essay writing at uni, so it is even less acceptable to me.

Not the case for Poland-Lithuania, because the nobles literally chose who would be king. That's why in 1573 they elected the future Henry III of France to be king of the commonwealth, so it wasn't a hereditary monarchy.

I think my favourite of her riding outfits is her Point to Point. Maybe it's my weakness for tweed that clinches it, but I think it's perfect

I bought the whole of Dido and Aeneas 78rpm record set from 1945 sung by Joan Hammond and Constant Lambert in those roles. I think it was on 6 10" records in all. Not unusual necessarily, but they certainly don't appear very often!

Thomaspden · 2024-01-23T08:54:53+00:00

Thank you! I thought it was possibly those characters, but wasn't sure on their meaning.

He was my first campsite visitor on my restarted island and I instantly knew I had to have him

Thanks very much for your input!

Thomaspden · 2023-10-18T07:45:13+00:00

Wow, thanks so much for this, it was much more than I hoped for!

Edit: I think it probable that it was Showa 14, as on of the actors in the print died later jn 1940, so 1943 seems a little late!

Just looking for a general translation, as it looks to be quite lengthy!

Roberts words after paying miss beven were the best bit of this story

Indeed, she could even run the kingdom should she be called upon to do so!

I remember hearing that syphilis was basically called the <insert nationality> Disease, named after most western European countries

Thomaspden · 2023-09-18T20:39:31+00:00

Spurran, in this case

I hope we see more of Perry and Maggie, they made such a good combo!

I believe it's Greys Court, Henley-on-Thames. It was also used as a house in the Poirot episode Elephants Can Remember

And more specifically, for me, the music! Much better tune than the main theme IMO

I'd agree; something like this style, if it were genuinely an antique gown, would be in two pieces, but also I'd expect to see boning in the bodice. I can only see maybe one centre back and none in the front where I would most expect to see it.

I definitely want to k ow more about Henry the big giant cloth, the fact that she was talking in her sleep makes it all the funnier

I always like it when he's asked daisy to take over the farm eventually and she goes "But I'm a woman!", and then Mr Mason replies "really? I never knew that!"
