I won't say what happened in the garden, though I would love to stroll with Mr. Darcy once again....
ReplyDeleteI bet he tried to get into your..... good graces
ReplyDeleteI heard about the events that occurred in the garden, I'm not one to repeat gossip, so I'll only say this once.....

As I think the nice gentleman is now quite hot and bothered by a tour of the gardens with Lady Chatterly, I think I would choose for a stroll through the gallery or the library.
ReplyDeleteThe now-slightly tipsy Duchess de Borde raises an eyebrow at that Chatterly woman. Two can play THIS game, and won't that be fun?! After his excertions in the garden, perhaps the darling Mr. Darcy is in dire need of a drink to *ahem* quench his thirst?? ;D
ReplyDelete"A rousing round of 'Find the Flask' is in order," giggles the Duchess as she weaves a cautious yet dignified path towards her host.
I'm not going to be so forward as to request a stroll in the garden, but I would love to see the Pemberley library.

Lady Blodeuedd looks at Lady Chatterley's dress. I must have the dressmakers name.
ReplyDeleteThen she whispers to the person next to her about how Mr Darcy showed the lady around the garden, and it was for quite some time. Scandal my pretties
Oh most definitely the library - course ...I wonder how many books I could slip into my petticoats
