  "Did you think of anything when Miss Marcy said Scoatney Hall was being re-opened? I thought of the beginning of Pride and Prejudice where Mrs. Bennet says "Netherfield Park is let at last." And then Mr. Bennet goes over to call on the rich new owner." "Mr. Bennet didn't owe him any rent," I said. "Father wouldn't go anyway. How I wish I lived in a Jane Austen novel!" I said I'd rather be in a Charlotte Bronte. "Which would be nicest - Jane with a touch of Charlotte, or Charlotte with a touch of Jane ?" This is the kind of discussion I like very much but I wanted to get on with my journal, so I just said: "Fifty per cent each way would be perfect," and started to write determinedly.
