Win a P&P3 DVD prize package

Alert Janeite Carol wrote to tell us that the Manolo for the Brides blog is running a contest, the prize for which is a P&P3 DVD package with tea and other goodies. Entrants have to submit a “bizarre or hilarious” wedding story by February 27.

There is much that could be snarked in the blog entry–wandering spelling, perception of 18th century modes of cleanliness–but the Editrix has been in every secondhand shop in Southeastern Pennsylvania today looking for a nice dresser with drawers that might actually hold something (in other words, what modern furniture makers are NOT making) and does not have the energy. Besides, they’re giving away a lovely prize, it seems rather churlish.

    This is too funny. I was blogging about it at precisely the same moment.

    Oh, sorry!!!

  3. Julie B. Says:

    Don’t apologize! Further proof that great minds think alike.

  4. JuliaB Says:

    Concerning the “wandering spelling” - I think she ist well off, when not even the editors of the DVD managed to spell “Jane Austen” right (and even at the only place where they mention her name at all!)…

    Remember, the people who gave us the Region 1 DVD of P2 couldn’t spell “Austen” properly.
