Thoughts on Marriage

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a young couple in possession of a good fortune ought to marry. Though we know little of their feelings or views on the matter, Mr. Tinsley and Miss Simmons should consider the minds of the surrounding families. Stoney Grove, whilst their rightful property, is integral to the life of the village.  Their marriage would be a time of celebration, and a positive example to our village girls.

Hose Not to Blame

As a long time purveyor of ladies’ undergarments, I would like to point out that only a tiny minority of nylon stockings have been documented each year as accessories in criminal activities. Whilst Hollywood and the BBC have corrupted the image of hosiery in the public imagination, I can assure you that most leg coverings are worn by law-abiding citizens.
