Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 You reminded me of when I was a kid and I had a pen pal in England. It was great. I'll write if you want me to.

I'm game for a PenPal, traveling at the moment is not easy to " work in " . During my early PenPal days, I would draw on the backs of the envelopes, mainly to mess with the postman's mind. My hand writing is easy to read, since I myself might need to read it as well, and writing with my foot was impractical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 I've been wallowing in Jane Austen since PBS ran that series this winter. I have learned that to Miss Austen, being " knocked up " in Mansfield Park meant that Miss Price was tired. Of course, I grew up in Pennsylvania, where they routinely throw the cow over the fence some hay.
