That's an astute comment ...Thank you very much. That's an astute comment from Lewis. Once I was in the grip of the books, the thing that "one may call "the gormenghastly"" really did become one of my mental filing boxes. A person would walk around a corner and I'd think, "Oh, he's a Doctor," "She's a Nannie Slagg." It became automatic. <br /><br />Best wishes to you too. I hope Peake Studies is going well.
