Dankie. Ek is mal oor Jane en het die boeke om dit te bewys. Collector’s items en van my kosbaarste besittings. Wens ek kan eendag hierdie plekkies besoek.

Ai, ek het ‘n paar maal by daardie plek in Bath verby gestap. Beplan om later terug te kom, nie gedink ek sal Engeland ooit verlaat nie!
Wys jou net, mens moet dinge doen as jy die kans kry.
Wonderlike pos Nikita.

Hi Roer… ek het slegs een DVD… ongelukkig min van haar boeke gelees!
@Eilandkind..het jy toe geweet dat dit was waar sy gebly het?
@Reisiger… Ek’s bly jy het dit geniet! Ek hou daarvan om die moeite te doen, dis vir my lekker en ek geniet dit, met die pos oor haar, het ek soveel links eintlik gekry en goet gelees..ek het nie al die links hier opgesit nie, te veel! maar daar is so baie oor haar op die internet en ek dink hierdie links is al klaar genoeg om jou dronk te maak! lol! ek het nog heelwat foto’s van ons trippie af soontoe, sal dalk so ‘n mosaic daarvan maak, was net te veel om op te sit, selfs die een wat ek ‘n paar dae terug gemaak het, dis moeilik om te besluit watter foto’s, want hulle is almal so mooi! 😉

Beautiful rooms and gardens. Makes one want to go back to that period in time.

hi Dan, yes, but would like the rooms to be a bit bigger, if you look at Jane’s room in this post, it’s really a small room, some rooms a bit smaller although I love the wooden floors!

Wow! dankie dat jy Jane so naby aan ons gebring het Nikita.
Ek was al vreeslik nuuskierig om dit te sien.
Die piano is te oulik!!!
Baie goeie inskrywing en so baie links en daardie links het weer so baie links gehad.

It was typical of the period. Smaller rooms were easier to heat!

hi Wipneus.. bly jy het dit geniet..soos ek gese het, ek sal later ‘n mosaic maak met nog ‘n paar.
Hi Dan… I do agree with you, but for myself, I would like them bigger…meaning if I have to live in a house like that today… 😉

Hi Nikita, ja, daar was ‘n bordjie op, ek dink dit is ‘n klein museum. Ai, spyt kom altyd te laat.
Geniet jou wekie weg, ek kan nie wag om te sien wat jy gaan skryf wanneer jy terug kom nie, gaan jou mis hier.

What a wonderful, meaty post on Jane! I’m going to use your link in my next ezine (a Regency ‘zine) and tell my readers to drop by to see this. Better yet, with your permission, I’ll cut and paste your whole post, including the photos, into my ezine.
My ezine is “Upon My Word!” and you can see some samples of it on my website.
I can’t wait to visit Jane’s house for myself, though it is so bittersweet!

Om eerlik te wees, ek het maar langtand gaan kliek op Jane Austen! 😆 Maar dit was nou regtig baie interessant. Ek het van haar boeke gelees, en altyd geniet, maar niks van haar geweet nie! 😳
Maar geen gelukkige love story vir haar nie? Nogal ‘n jammerte.
“I do not want people to be agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them.” – Histeries! 😆

Hi Boendoe, ek moet self sê ek het nog nie van haar boeke gelees nie, my kind het hulle almal verslind! Ek het darem ‘n fliek of twee gesien, ons het ook die dag daar een op dvd gekoop. EK hou van hierdie tipe stories.
on 11/08/2009 at 09:24 | Reply Nikita
Boendoe, ek dink jy gaan hou van die foto’s van Beatrix Potter se huis/museum- ons was verlede jaar hierdie tyd in daardie omgewing. Gaan loer bietjie op die link, ek kry heelwat besoekers wat die link ook besoek.
