It’s been such a long time since I last read any of them that I honestly can’t remember if I noticed or not. I certainly can’t remember thinking about it, so I would say not.<br />I wonder if anyone else reading your comment has noticed.<br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962552429792516213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4496559191887463909.post-69750400725980745542013-05-16T17:27:43.031+01:002013-05-16T17:27:43.031+01:00I've had to comment on here as I wonder if you...I've had to comment on here as I wonder if you have noticed this, Barbara?<br /><br />I am re-re-reading my Lorna Hill Ballet series and just noticed that in Swan Feather, it says that Mariella was married to Ian. According to my memory, she married Robin Campbell. I did notice it before, when I last read and forgot until reading it again.

Family photos are always so precious it must be horrible to lose them. I wish I could return all the things I find, but it’s very difficult as the books come from so many different sources. I always hope someone reading this blog might recognise them and make contact.

I would love to be able to return everything to the rightful owner but that’s not always possible, so I leave them in the book in the hope that a new owner will love them. This is a gorgeous book in lovely condition, signed by the author and with added extras.

I’ve been to Australia a couple of times (we have family in Adelaide) but have never made it to Tasmania.
