I'm glad you have it and I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
I've utterley forgotten what I was going to say about Pet Meagles.

Hello Pompey Bum:
Nice to see you too!!
Hello Jackson Richardson:
I think I will enjoy it, yes!!
I'm reading his books in alphabetical order and so far I've read Barnaby Rudge, The Christmas Books, Bleak House and have started David Copperfield. I have really enjoyed them all, apart from The Chimes (one of the Christmas books) which was too confusing and dreary.
I really cannot understand why Barnaby Rudge is one of his least favoured works. It's a great insight into a moment of history that, I confess, I'd never even heard of before - The Gordon Riots. It's also such a funny book with unforgettable characters, such as Sir John Chester, who remembers that 'thinking begets wrinkles'.
Bleak House is also wonderful. So beautiful but gripping.
