Yes, Henri, I agree that does sound typical of Barrie's whimsy, especially when one imagines it being spoken by him. The effect can be gauged by listening to his brief speeches on surviving newsreel footage.
welcome back to the blogesphere Henri ( I think it is mercury retro inspired). Very interesting, truth fictionalised or fiction made into truth. I wonder if Barrie knew he was telling a fib or it was just his recollection distorting the past...?
Dear Atticus and Gondal-girl, many thanks for your comments.
(and yes, mercury just went direct again after its three week or so stint retrograde - a hard one for Virgos this time, I reckon, not just Geminis. [And maybe some Taureans, too, Atticus!])
Don't know what it is about Mercury Retrograde, it puts me in a funk, like a cat with the wind in its ears....wish I could learn to work with it more effectively....oh dear, an obvious virgo sounding comment.....
My real name is Henrietta - Henri stuck (like names do - for no reason) from when I was sixteen and at boarding school, which I hated. (Well, it's no worse than Hen or Henny, which were sometimes
awarded to me in my youth, and when I
started writing a lot of horoscope columns
the full nine syllables was too much of a
mouthful to put on a by-line - Henri Ll. D in itself is more than long enough!)
I am a psychic astrologer, doing personal readings, and I love my work - which I've been doing for (almost) three decades. I
also write. Work website: http://www.henrillewelyndavies.com/
