Episode Description
It’s the 90s so the Ads and Features from the August 1996 issue of Romantic Times are a treasure trove of confusion. We’ve got:
- A tour of Jude Deveraux’s Grade II Listed Home in Suffolk
- Barbara Cartland perfumes
- How should emoji faces be written? Nose or no nose?
- What is the appeal of “nursing him back to health” plots?
- And RT is going to answer the eternal question that has plagued womankind throughout the ages. It’s a doozy.
We mentioned:
- Anne Rice: A Critical Companion by Jennifer Crusie (eBay) (Thriftbooks)
- Barbara Cartland perfumes (eBay)
- The Perfume Society’s remembrance of John Bailey, former president and personal perfumer to Barbara Cartland (that’s a job!?)
- Jude Deveraux’s former home in Suffolk, Ketton House
- Is this Peter Gallagher?
