Is anyone else watching the new Sense and Sensebility atm?

[08aGreatYearForCarmenere]

It is good but quite odd as the casting is strangely similar to the film version, ie they all look and sound very alike.

pannini?

Pannini sounds like a pet name a family might have for a vagina. So a crostini might be a post-menopausal pannini?

ewww.
Bruschetta!
(female character in bad prussian operetta?)

I have no idea what you could be talking about, anyway, Swedes.
Remember I am UNDER 40, for a leeetle longer.

Bruschettini
(female character with achondroplasia in bad prussian operetta?)

Onbatinerthirties - William or Harry?

I'd have to say Harry.

vermicelli
comic manservant with Strongyloides westeri in same increasingly appealing production

I would rather eat vermicelli than do either.

macaroni
elderly troubadour (with one-legged harridan wife,) in loco Falstaff to hero.

But let's say your life depended upon it. William, Harry or would you rather make canapes forever more, pausing only to pick fresh basil?

I would GROW the basil in my pants rather than touch either inbred arse, I'm afraid.
But Swedes, is this not more of a Twenties question?
Thirties question is, well, is this very thread really, isn't it?

Onebat - you mean the Nietzsche thread?
OK so it might be a qustion for a woman in her 20s but I think you can tell a lot about a woman by her choice of inbreed.

Hi legs or thongs? Now that is a Q for your 20s.

BTW Pruni summed it up for me on another thread. She said she hadn't finished a thought in her DSs company for years. except she put it much more eloquently. It made me want to weep.

No this thread! Is anyone else watching the new Sense and Sensibility atm? That is a question for your Thirties. As are many of the concerns raised herein.

but yes re thought-finishing. Perhaps that is why MN appeals? Can be just one thought at a time, can be very pedestrian thought, but it does, at least, get finished?

OK Harry

hello good god this thread is long

I am watching it

I have also decided to reread it since I can't work out which bits are Austen and which aren't

and because I believe that the sentiments of the novel and the Sense/ Sensibility aspect aren't coming across as much as I remember them

and oooh, Jane Austen was good. It's been about 17 years since I read it but ooooh

And a q for your 40s is...
how much do children fetch on ebay so I can at last finish that script?

"I would GROW the basil in my pants rather than touch either inbred arse"
I wasn't thinking you might touch either of their arses, more thinking you might lie back and think of England. Singing the National Anthem might seem a bit keen.

Hello Cappie! (may I?)
How are Eloise and her darling babes, garden and linen press?

I do have a fine baritone, though, Swedes, so it would be very ..rousing... for the boy-who-won't-be-king

I have buried Eloise in her own garden

Yes, back to S & S.

!

killed the fragrant hope of the British literary scene?

Oh Capps, what have you done?

No Ruty is the scriptwriter Swedes.

oh, bugger off then, OBM wins with the first. I am complete slacking drop-out.

Oh dear I have fannied about on here all day! No work done AT ALL!
If you see me this eve please tell me I have much to catch up on and do I want my children to starve?
