Sorry gmw - you and I crossed in the mail again last time, and then I had to go out for the day.
True enough, and Florence was at least in part responsible for her own downfall. There was a certain amount of pigheadedness in hanging on to Old House with its rapper, the damp - definitely very bad indeed for books - and its general awkwardness. Especially when what she had thought could be her storage area was only fit to be demolished. Still, she may not have been able to live in the wet fish shop, and she needed space for a home as well as a shop.
Sadly though, there are people like Violet Gamart out there, and during my life I have come across one or two. Luckily I escaped unscathed, but not everyone does.
