A Statue from Edinburgh for my Gazebo (I wish) - for Sticki

now I would like this for my garden.

thats very elegant ~ looks like wedgewood!

I agree Sticki! lol....its the garlands around the plinth...just like wedgwood!

quite jane austin too ~ are they called pride and prejudice?

I would have it without the plinth..not sure it actually belonged to the statue originally, funny you should say that Sticki, I thought at the time "sense and sensibility" lol". I think they were modelled on some Scottish Duke's daughters..but I may be wrong.

they look very pretty girls ~ im not sure which one you had named as which but i think the one on the left is wearing quite a see-through dress!!??

Thats right! She was sensibility..all romance..the other more elegant and..refined!

which one would you be?

i would be the naughty one in the corner behind these two beauties!!

They dont have a room big enough for mine Sticki lol! Im more like that Moore monstrosity that was nicked..tho who would want it Im sure I dont know!!

course you are NOT!!!

anyway beauty is in the eye of the beholder, i bet you can be just what you want to be if you are a statue

Well I would chose to be Miss Prim and Proper..just to get inside her head and make naughty suggestions!

thats brilliant ~ made me laugh ~ and its a while since i did that!!

you could rewrite fried and fredjustice ~ be much more fun.

I often wonder if Elizabeth Bennett would have been really happy..JA certainly caught her wicked sense of fun and Darcy really was a bit of a ramrod!

and mr bennett?
probably would have been a jeremy paxman type!?

Yes, poor ole Mr Bennett did have a sarcastic tongue didnt he lol!

i think he is the funniest in the book

I loved Mr Collins, the obsequious reverend cousin, the bloke that portrayed him in the Colin Firth version was brilliant!

im sure the actor was great but i cant cope with irrelevant and inocuous vicars!!!

Oops! Forgot about that! lol!

wish i could!!
OH wants me to go to church with him now!!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
