Er... who are Barbara Pym and Margaret Drabble? I've never heard of a Miss Read, either. I confess I have heard of Winnie the Pooh and I can't stand Dickens. I think there is a Miss Marple TV programme that elders watch. We have lots of full-on trance and hard house clubs over here in quaint old England, though. Strangely, when people come over here, they tend to stand in a queue in the rain outside Madame Tussauds to see a bunch of waxworks of dubious celebrities. Never quite figured that one out.
Wow! this is really a fascinating and fun cultural exchange. I am a bit of
an Anglophile, I would love to visit when I can afford it, but then again,
maybe my Miss Marple, Barbara Pym, Winnie the Pooh, Margaret Drabble, Miss
Read and Charles Dickens are preferable to a boring modern reality.
Cheers
