It is my bedtime(UK time!) and so I take my leave of you and this section of Jas letters.

I would like to thank you all for contributing so much( 663 messages posted as the board stands now) and for much stimulating conversation.Which is, of course,the best ;-)

I hope you will be able to join me for the next section of The Letters, which will cover Letters 17-22, hopefully sometime next year.

Thank you all once again for joining me on my first solo Group Read:I sincerely hope it has not been too bumpy a ride.

See you on the other boards:-)

Oh!!And don't forget the next Group Read is Persuasion which starts on September 19th (AGGHH!! What with that and the Uk release of P+P3 ...I think I need to go and lie down in a very dark room.Untill at least September 16th. Green window shades anyone?...)

Love from
