Diary Of A Provincial Lady, Chapter 6

Diary of a Provincial Lady, published nearly a hundred years ago by E M Delafield, is a direct ancestor of Bridget Jones' Diary. In tonight's hilarious episode, our narrator finds Christmas shopping rather exhausting. Christmas itself, with its visiting relatives and children's parties, while being festive, is similarly fraught with irritations as well as delights.

This gentle story of the daily ups and downs of domestic life has also been compared with George Grossmith's Diary of a Nobody, also available narrated by me in Free Tracks.

Nothing has changed; managing Christmas for your household is exhausting; I was thinking about how its just around the corner the other day! Thanks for reading Mandy🙏🏻

She is witty— not quite as funny as another certain female author I know, but great 😂😘😘 thank you ✨🙏🏼✨

Thank you Mandy! 🙏🏻📖💖
One question: did Vicky ask for a “toy greenhouse”? That’s what I heard. Odd wish if true.
