I know she won’t mind me sharing this, but this is my sister’s progress on the Spencer jacket she’ll be wearing for the Jane Austen Festival promenade on Saturday. Her first time at a military looking jacket. It now has sleeves on, but now amazing is this!!

Two weeks today, I'll be on my way to Bath for 4th Jane Austen Festival. Can't believe it's come round again so quick, but can't wait!! If you're going, do come say hello.

Seeing the Swing in person was a real dream, even more so as it was in a Disney exhibition at the time

🤫 Can you keep a secret?
'Perhaps before the end of April, Mansfield Park by the author of S & S.-P. & P. may be in the World.- Keep the name to yourself. I should not like to have it known beforehand.'

@SallyJLloyd @JaneAustenHouse I’ve looked up where the museum is to visit!

@EPCOT02 @JaneAustenHouse I thought exactly the same! Plus it’s in the north 😉

It’s gone to a museum! Best news ever! I was lucky to see it at @JaneAustenHouse and I’m so pleased it’s staying the public domain

If you spotted the auction of Mr Darcy's shirt in the press this week, you may be wondering who bought it.... Find out more: news.calderdale.gov.uk/bringing-a-pie… [image copyright Kerry Taylor Auctions]

@Museum_Rachel It’s always used as a negative (dispute being the world leader in leisure for a reason) and honestly Winchester is already a tourist destination so I don’t think one statue will make that much difference

@EPCOT02 I think the phrase disneyfication is really unfair as Disney place great experiences at the heart of what they do, a strong sense of heritage and reminiscence in their offer

Really interesting article and im a fan of authentic experiences. But equally tourists bring a different perspective and not every tourist will want a selfie theguardian.com/books/2024/mar…

Adds to the list of dresses I’d happily wear to events in the 21st century

Friday Treat Time and a beautiful duck egg blue silk evening dress from the late 1810s. This exquisite example with its fuller skirt shape and elaborate trimmings reflects a move away from the neo-classical influences of the previous decade to the romantic tastes of the 1820s.

Had the best surprise this morning!! My author copies have arrived. Honestly can’t quite believe I can hold it in my hands!! Anthony Woodville: Sophisticate or Schemer is now available for preorders if anyone would like to do so.
