Ho-ho-ho.. how many do I play with here?

Secsy, Dear (or should I say 'Dear Sexy'?) your mind seems to be working just like mine - skip the bits that are of no interest - like a stray 'and' - and pounce with pin-point precision on the bits that make you tick. Blue historical fiction, indeed.. This is blue, it's historical fiction and it's also an excellent read. At the moment I'm reading about Whitby. Which reminds me... Lady Mary, do you know the song about Old Whitby Harbour? Lovely song and a favourite of mine.

Leadfingers, are you standing in for Mary or just leaping like a salmon to the fly? :o))
