Ha Jackie, no my knickerbocker suit was in the wash that day (the 'daily' hadn't got round to doing it) .
Although a v. close friend of mine did go to a fancy dress party as a non-specific character from a Jilly novel(the theme was 'Guilty Pleasures'). She back-combed her hair to make it big and wore jodphurs... she had a fantastic time! And pulled!
(that's a genuine friend by the way, not a 'friend')!

Love, love jilly!

Rivals my fave as adored the taggie/rupert story and my best bits in her subsequent books always relate to them.

Also loved Daisy in polo.

Wicked very poor - just don't think she does 'normal' people very well - she's much better on posh people.

Whens her next book out i wonder?

Oh GOD I want to go to a Guilty Pleasures party dressed up as a 80's horsey heroine. Hysterical.

Love Jilly. Bless her.

Tracey - like you I always love the references to Rupert and Taggie in subsequent books.
