  1. Dating advice from Sir Walter Scott:

    If you're seeing someone but realise it's probably not going anywhere, don't just ghost them -

    explain that your all-consuming passion for the restoration of the Stuart monarchy leaves little room in your heart for rival affections (then flounce off dramatically) ⚔️

  2. Fancying a rewatch of #BBC 1999 #TV version of #ElizabethGaskell Wives and Daughters. We haven’t seen it since it first aired but have the #DVD, which I just pulled out of a precariously tall DVD pile in our sitting room! Looking forward to it. I reread the original novel recently. imdb.com/title/tt0215364/ #BritishTV #90sTV #VictorianLiterature #19thCenturyLiterature #NineteenthCenturyLiterature #Novels #CostumeDrama #WomenAuthors #FemaleAuthors #Books #19thCenturyNovels #VictorianNovels #Fiction
