And i feel badly for getting Mary and Jane mixed up when it is one of my favourite stories!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6145452263098688113.post-555083708300687362008-02-11T12:16:00.000-05:002008-02-11T12:16:00.000-05:00You should so not worry about getting the name wro...You should so not worry about getting the name wrong. My first acquaintance with "Pride and Prejudice' came through a stage version when I was about fifteen. I didn't encounter the book for another year or so and then I was horrified to find that there were five Bennet girls. Hadn't anyone ever told Jane Austen there were only three? Clearly the theatre company were cutting down on 'unnecessary' cast expenses. It took me years to accept Mary and Kitty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6145452263098688113.post-86961952212737705842008-02-11T09:39:00.000-05:002008-02-11T09:39:00.000-05:00raidergirl3: Oops.....I meant Jane, not Mary! wil...raidergirl3: Oops.....I meant Jane, not Mary! will go correct on the blog, sorry! I was tired and knew i was getting name wrong, but not why!!<BR/> You are in for such a treat! It gets better :-)<BR/> Patricia - you got snow? well, we did too, but only about 5 cm. Right now it is COLD and I have to go see the doctor and our clinic is CLOSED today (???unbelievable, it's part of the hospital, how can it be closed on Monday??) as the telenurse said I should see a dr within 24 hrs....so off I go to a walk-in clinic, wish me luck. will keep you advised...it is -17c right now, far colder in the wind.

I like the story, but it just takes soo loong to get anywhere, so I appreciate your insights into the nuances of the show. <BR/>Anyway, I can't remember all the twists that are going to happen, with Wickham. I know Mr Darcy is in the right and Lizzie is being duped, but it will be a wonderful surprise when it happens for me. <BR/><BR/>Who is Mary? I love Mr Bennett, and Mrs Bennett is quite shrill and annoying, poor Lizzie and Jane.raidergirl3https://www.blogger.com/profile/03629915042716259349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6145452263098688113.post-77724264667644787452008-02-11T08:44:00.000-05:002008-02-11T08:44:00.000-05:00I didn't catch the show, darn it.

Late night, no nap makes Lady P kind of grumpy so I went to bed at 9:30 pm. I will write a note to myself to catch the next show in the series next Sunday. Meanwhile...have to go shovel... AGAIN!!!Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11256567414059449423noreply@blogger.com
