Okay, while we're all here, I think I&#...+JMJ+<br /><br />Okay, while we're all here, I think I'd better say what needs to be said:<br /><br /><b>Bags I get the absurd settings of <i>The Man Who Was Thursday</i> this Saturday!!!</b><br /><br />Okay, with that out of the way . . .<br /><br />Yes, with my old readership, it would have been mostly Chesterton settings . . . with some C.S. Lewis, just to vary things up a little, and Rumer Godden for those who want to show off how <i>extra</i> literary they are. And a random Shusako Endo for the truly avant-garde.<br /><br />Now I wonder what would have happened if Paul and Bat <i>had</i> "clashed by accident." (It wouldn't have been a clash, though, unless you had opposing reactions to the same setting.) I suppose it would be the same sort of thing as two women showing up to a party wearing the same dress . . . !Enbrethilielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03414765854670926854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1725975489373372070.post-15389166466053425132010-05-23T17:29:58.977-07:002010-05-23T17:29:58.977-07:00Oh, I don't mean that you Paul would willfully...Oh, I don't mean that you Paul would willfully steal anyone's thunder, only that I'm glad we didn't clash by accident.Belfry Bathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00514867101036143597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1725975489373372070.post-12435872613768599812010-05-23T14:37:22.346-07:002010-05-23T14:37:22.346-07:00Enbrethiliel, now just imagine what this meme woul...Enbrethiliel, now just imagine what this meme would be like if it was "viral" in St. Blogs.<br /><br />250 or so bloggers and three quarters of them covering a Chesterton book, every Saturday.<br /><br />It would be a freaking nightmare.<br /><br />Hey I live in the same sort of place!

Am I a lucky meme host or what? ;)<br /><br />"One of the ragged suburbs of the cosmos half-forgotten by God" . . . That sounds like the place where I live. (LOL!)<br /><br />I think that the House-Agent's home is a great choice. It's not Egdon Heath, but it has its own charm. <br /><br />Now I have to reread my own copy of <i>The Club of Queer Trades</i>!Enbrethilielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03414765854670926854noreply@blogger.com
