Once upon a time, on a dark, insomnia-inducing night rather like this one, a young lady followed her first blog. That blog happened to be the P&P95 Forever Club. Later that night (technically the next morning), that same young lady started her own blog. To paraphrase Jane Austen, no one who had ever seen that young lady in her blogging infancy would have supposed that she would end up here.
I won't lie, though-- I feel a bit as though I've just been informed that I am hosting a ball at which I know none of the guests. Were I more like Mrs. Bennet, I would sag against the wall and weep about my nerves. But because I am not Mrs. Bennet, and would rather like to get to know all of you better, I am going to stand here at the imaginary doors of the blog and greet you. That's what the comment section is for-- and if you'd like to find out more about this impertinent young lady who's taken over your favorite blog, you can read all about me here.
Until next time, then, I remain
Yours very sincerely,
Miss Elizabeth
P.S. A few housekeeping details: over the next few weeks, I'll be dusting off the rest of the blog. I've already begun to do so (you may have noticed some changes in the sidebar), but I would very much appreciate a bit of your help. Part of this dusting off involves checking all the links found on this site, so if you find a link that doesn't work during your perusal, let me know so I can Get Right On It. Please and thank you :)
Yours, etc.
Miss E

Dear Miss Elizabeth,
Nice to have you running the show.
I'd like to inform you that there was a link for some additional pictures in my "P&P95 Location Tour" guest post. That link doesn't work any more because they shut down the Google Plus.
Yours,
Hannu
I've kinda been out of the blogging world for some time, but getting back into it here and there as time and inspiration coincide. ;D Anyhoo, I just saw your lovely post here and wanted to say hi! Your writing is friendly and lighthearted, and I'm excited to see what plans you have in store. Welcome!
(Oh, and my main blog is over at Along the Brandywine: https://ladyofanorien.blogspot.com/)
Love your first post! I am at least one guest that you already know. :) Looking forward to more!! Thanks so much for taking this on. I have every confidence in you. :)
Hello from Oregon ~ I just tripped across this blog in researching for places to visit on our upcoming dream-trip-of-a-lifetime to see the UK and Scotland, focusing ( after London) on venues from movies based on Jane Austen novels. Primarily, we are going to go to sites in P&P95. :) We will be in Bath for the first weekend of the Jane Austen Festival too. So excited!
Anyway, I was trying to follow the link Hannu Heino posted for more photos, but see from the comment above that the link is defunct.
