Another Antonia Forest thread

[tvaerialmagpiebin]

We haven't had one in a while.

I have just won "Attic Term" on ebay and almost got "Marlows and the Traitor" from a dealer but it turned out their website was out of date and it had sold in December. Boo hiss.

I tried to find the thread from a while back about "Nicola Merrick" the radio producer but I think it must have been in Chat because it has gone. I am re-reading all the AF books I have, in order, and it is surprising how things slip into place now. Can't believe I got "Ready-made family" for 25p in a charity shop 10 years ago and that launched me on such a fantastic discovery.

Now I have to convince my local library to get out the copy of "Run away Home" that they claim to have in the HQ store, and I will be very happy..

I probably like Cricket Term best.

The historicals are actually very good in my opinion - the second one, anyway, not so sure about the first. Her Will Shakespeare is utterly gorgeous.

I do like being Miss Cromwell. Wish I could pull it off in real life ... guess Miss C would never say "utterly gorgeous" though.

If I can't be Miss C think I might like to be Miranda...

No, she would rub her nose appreciatively.....

I have been being Pomona for a few days now. I am really not sure I am Pomona. Might go back to being Miranda again. I do aspire to being Miranda I think...

Am going to be Val again for a bit.

Still think Nicola should have bowled her during the cricket final. But it was probably The Right Thing To Do (or not do in this case).

Have just had an alert from Abebooks that there is a copy of 'The Marlows and the Traitor' available for £45.00. Here is the link
