Very believable! You can’t really expect Ned to fall over Evvy after Donkey-Face (such a good name ). Pleased to see both Evvy’s & Edgar’s responses – though I’m sorry for Evvy. Imagine needing proper comfort reading and having only Catcher in the Rye available. |

Wonder if Evvy will tell Ned about Ralph dying in the war when he apologises? |

He gathered together some of her things, remembering her nightclothes and toiletries, but not paying a great deal of attention to what clothes he threw into the bag. |

Lovely Jo. I must say Evvy is being unaccountably thick! |

On the one hand I want to see more posts about this, on the other, I don't want the story to end. |

Hilarious. In the books, he just gets mentioned as 'Sir Edgar' and I imagined a stuffy, rather older gent who was a definite second best to her fiance from the war. |

Just out of curiosity, are you setting this to a specific time? (I know the courtship isn't mentioned in the books, but it's nice to get a feel for where it fits in.) If so, where in CS chronology are we now? |

I'll be so sad when this drabble ends (although hopefully it won't! ) We could go on to - 'Marcia of the Chalet School', and 'Edgar and Evvy: Ten Years On' and so forth! |
