Gentlefolk living during the Regency era (1811-1820) had problems, too. Mr. Darcy, a character in both Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre Gets Real, shares some of his:
You Dislike How Your Valet Ties Your Cravat
Bath Has Gotten Much Too Tourist-y
Too Many Peasants Are Poaching Your Pheasants
Lord Byron Gets All The Chicks
Even Sensible Ladies Persist In Wearing Stupid Shoes–Plus They All Seem To Know Your Yearly Income
Food Is Inevitably Served In Aspic
You Keep Forgetting To Return This Book To The Library–And It’s 500 Years Overdue
I encourage peasants poaching pheasants! And madwomen torching the thing from the attic on down…
I have a soft spot for those things too!
hahaha Loved this! 😀
Much thanks! Glad I could make you laugh!

Same old, same old…
LOL this is great thanks for the insight and the chuckles 🙂
Fabulous
Much thanks! Annabelle
Welcome
I love this period in literature, especially mysteries with very debonair gentlemen, usually former military, as the heroes keeping the United Kingdom safe. Thanks for following our blog also. Regina
Hi Regina–Glad you enjoy the period; I am happy to be following your blog, too! Best, Annabelle
I just bought your book. It has great reviews on Amazon, so I am looking forward to reading it. It has one of my very favorites, Sherlock Holmes, a man after my heart, especially the intense acting of Benedict Cumberbatch.
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy it. I’d love to know your opinion after you read it, and I hope you will leave a review as well. Best Regards, Annabelle
Hilarious!
Thank you!
