One or two or even more might be thinking that but at that stage of the night the group’s a powerful thing

I’m intrigued why she chose to name four different characters Charles in Persuasion

I was convinced it was Jane but now I can’t find it - that’ll learn me

What is Aunt Norris’s first name?

Have any of them had a full night’s sleep in weeks?

It’s that word ‘relief’ -makes me think of ‘on the parish’ - but so agree about the HS wrong name
