madame_guillotine at 11:54am on 30/05/2009This is my last weekend of FREEDOM before I start working in earnest again next week. I am going to do some housework and try to declutter a bit. I might go to the local florists and buy some more pot plants for the kitchen and sitting room.
I may also do some writing. I think I know what I will be writing next but it needs a little bit of prior research first. I have just ordered copies of:
Which should give a clue about the sort of thing that I am writing about!
I also have this little gem winging its way to me thanks to Ebay and a very, very lovely seller. I have desperately wanted this book for ages but managed to miss the auction so ended up emailing them to ask if they were going to relist. They not only relisted it for a 24 hour auction but also stopped it when I put a bid on so that I could have it straight away! How nice is that? I got it for the princely sum of 99p! :)
It's about the Duchesse de Choiseul and is a great source of information about the French court in the latter part of the eighteenth century. I am SO excited to finally own my own copy! :)
