Pickpick

One last flannel waistcoat mention: "who still sought the constitutional safeguard of a flannel waistcoat!" ?

It's been a blast #Pemberlittens! Slowing down & reading gave me new appreciation for the story. I still don't see what Col B sees in Marianne but I'm glad he's happy. I'm definitely more Sense than Sensibility.
Thank You @sprainedbrain for all you've done!

Reviewsbylola I bought an annotated Austen fairly recently but I can‘t remember which one it was. Maybe Mansfield Park? 4y
batsy I loved that final flannel waistcoat reference 😆 4y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @Reviewsbylola I'm thinking I want Pride and Prejudice one because it's my favorite and to learn something new. MP one would be good because it's the hardest for me to read. 4y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @batsy I'd forgotten about it. So had a good laugh at the end. 4y

“Did not you hear him complain of the rheumatism? and is not that the commonest infirmity of declining life?”.........“But he talked of flannel waistcoats,” said Marianne; “and with me a flannel waistcoat is invariably connected with aches, cramps, rheumatisms, and every species of ailment that can afflict the old and the feeble.”
This Scene! #Pemberlittens 🤣🤣🤣
