Erk.

Just back from Motion Studios where I've been transposing songs to fit a specific lady singer's range. Which has also given me a chance to do some thinking about other things, as it seems I must.

When a lady drops a handkerchief it is encumbent upon a chap to pick it up and return it....if the chap in question is anywhere near at hand. I think the word I might be stretching for is propinquity. And always provided creaky and middle-aged limbs function well enough to facilitate such a restoration.

Hmmm.

Speaking of life in a Jane Austen novel... A few days ago I watched the 2007 BBC production of Persuasion. I found it quite disappointing. Your Jane Austen life is likely better done then that was.

There was a much better Persuasion done a few years previously, in fact:

there you go.

Yes, I've read about that version. Next time.

Stephen H. raved about it to such an extent I had to get it out on DVD. And upon watching, I agreed with him.

Persuasion is possibly my favourite novel.
