Hosted by Reading Between the Pages

This week's theme is Body Parts (Hands, feet, fingers, waist, etc.).

Here is my snippet from Unnatural Death by Dorothy L Sayers (p. 116):

No, Charles, I will not wait while you put on a Burberry. Back and side go bare, go bare, hand and foot go cold, so belly-god send us good ale enough, whether it be new or old.

    Very good one! I've been wanting to read this author. I've heard so many great things but haven't read any of her books.

    This made me look up "Burberry" because I wondered whether it was a type of coat that made the back and side go cold. It seems to be a perfectly regular coat, though.

    I like the belly-god bit the best. =)

    I'm very late this week, but here's mine: Theme Thursday @ Shredded Cheddar

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
