But next year I think I will give it a go - want to come with me?!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16974918106906613200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1129024732653900038.post-85553905017868705132010-09-26T13:01:29.678+08:002010-09-26T13:01:29.678+08:00Rach, a very important question:

Come on, tell me you did!<br /><br /><b>The walk on tuesday morning started in Laura Place (where Lady Dalrymple - Sir Walter's cousin in Persuasion- lived) and walked up Great Pulteney Street towards Sydney Place where Jane Austen resided. There are two interesting facts about Great Pulteney Street; William Wilberforce lived here during the same period and it was highly likely that Jane and Cassandra would have passed him frequently on their walks.</b> <br /><br />Very likely. JA was a hardcore supporter of slavery abolition, as shown in Mansfield Park. And you reminded me of 'Amazing Grace' movie... what a great movie!<br /><br /><b>Also, Great Pulteney Street actually converges with a Henrietta Street at Laura Place. The mystical me is ignited here as Henrietta Street in Dublin houses the Law Library of King's Inns which holds the Stained glass window of Thomas Lefroy coat of arms ! I like finding signs when most would say it is just sheer coincidence.</b><br /><br />I don't believe in coincidence; hence I agree with you. Jane Christmas Lefroy, anyone?Ichahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11201156394951497511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1129024732653900038.post-72151894158795500942010-09-26T12:55:46.110+08:002010-09-26T12:55:46.110+08:00Thanks a lot Rachel for your amazing article! I ha...Thanks a lot Rachel for your amazing article! I have to say my eyes are still green with envy.... :-D<br /><br />Linda, Jane Austen did live in Bath (in addition to visiting it when she was younger, methinks). JA lived in Bath before her father's death. I don't have her letters with me now, but I do remember reading in the letters about her living in Bath.<br /><br />"Oh! Who can ever be tired of Bath?"<br /><br />Who indeed?! Certainly not me! Thanks a lot Rachel!Ichahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11201156394951497511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1129024732653900038.post-20498646716904589222010-09-26T08:34:51.091+08:002010-09-26T08:34:51.091+08:00Thank you Rachel, for your beautifu report!
