And don't forget Carlyle's House and Ham House. Of course, it must be at least 30 years snce I last made it to Fenton House!<br />Wish I had a Secret Santa who shopped at Persephone (or who listened to hints!) <br />I know, I completely lost patience with EJH - there's something so unattractive about blaming parental shortcomings after, ooh, the age of 40!

I suppose it was down to the lack of love from her mother and the expectations of woman in her time but nevertheless I wanted to say 'get a grip, love and enjoy what you have'. I did enjoy it though and I'm just about to embark on the Cazalet Chronicles after reading 'Celia' by E.H.
