I do believe that this is sordid and unworthy of the Great Betty and it just totally ruins my enjoyment of the book.<br />[Brief recap--Max acts as a screen so that Tineke and her old boyfriend could snog while waiting for his crazy wife to die. Oh they may say they are just talking--nudge, nudge, wink wink... And then we are supposed to be thrilled that he is now free. Ick. And Max went along with this. Sheesh]. <br />Plus Sophy acted like a high school girl--making up a boyfriend, dodging Max,etc. She may have been a fantastic nurse, but she did get on my one nerve.<br />So there you have it--why this Betty voted for <i>Once For All Time</i>Barb in Marylandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374278685536530837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-4573286589043742942012-04-19T10:44:29.510-07:002012-04-19T10:44:29.510-07:00Yesterday, as I was surfing, I saw Asheville on th...Yesterday, as I was surfing, I saw <b>Asheville</b> on the Conquering the World widget (between 2:00-2:30 p.m.), and I thought, "Could this be our Magdalen?"<br />Enjoy your vacation!<br />Betty AnonymousAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-83991084385191298472012-04-19T09:51:21.564-07:002012-04-19T09:51:21.564-07:00Betty Lulu, go ahead and vote for Blow Hot, Blow C...Betty Lulu, go ahead and vote for <i>Blow Hot, Blow Cold</i>.

If there are any Bettys in the vicinity, I'm staying in the Willow Winds cabins, just off Route 25A. Of course, it's pouring rain night now, but who cares. It's cosy, and there's WiFi (I admit it: we *never* travel off the grid), and apart from the abysmal cold Betty Ross brought back from Oxford (which has made me twice as sick as it made him, the rotter), I'm having a fine time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-67434882027142040552012-04-17T17:00:52.846-07:002012-04-17T17:00:52.846-07:00Sister Peters in Amsterdam
