Because of my accident, I had not been following the GR until yesterday. I finally felt well enough to have a go and do the three for the day, and was rewarded by this letter. The alliteration at the start, all the jokey inversions, the fabulous comment about Miss P's beauty, and the lovely idea of the navy, the law etc... Somehow this letter just took me straight into that feeling of chatting with a very close, very intelligent and funny friend that is the best of JA (and of Pemberley).
