"...hands with something of beauty about them"

Erratum: This quote is from Lieutenant Hornblower (not Mr. Midshipman). Thanks, Annika!

Another photo of Mz's Unknown Sailor relative.


Looking through Mz's defunct blog (where I found this photo), I felt a pang for our old blog-friendship. 
It's definitely better to seeing her in person. But I miss the surprises that come with the mutual reading and writing of blogs.

  1. It's been so long since I last checked in on your blog (not much leisure time in front of the computer nowadays...), and even longer since I looked at Marz's! These photos are wonderful, thanks to both of you for showing them to the world!

    (But the famous hand quote is from a different book, Lieutenant Hornblower, my favourite in the series.)

  2. Thanks, Annika---I added a note to correct the source.
    I was saying to Marz that it's amazing you knew which book it was from, and she said, "No, it's not. It's the slashiest one!" :)
