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.

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

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!

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