Well! Last Monday Evening, When We Were Down At Denver, We Got A Wire From Peter, Which Coolly Said,
Well! Last Monday evening, when we were down at Denver, we got a wire from Peter, which coolly said, "If you really want to see me married, try St. Cross Church, Oxford, to-morrow at two."
guys, the calender has lined up!! Tomorrow is Tuesday, the 8th of October, aka Lord Peter and Harriet's wedding day (and 89th anniversary). this is your chance to read Busman's Honeymoon in real time! (aside from the Dowager's diary, unfortunately)
If you do keep track of the days in Busman's Honeymoon, it's a bit unsettling how quickly it all happens, because SO MUCH happens. Tomorrow they will be married in Oxford; and the mystery (of which they are as yet blissfully unaware) will be solved on Friday. On Saturday, they will arrive at the Dower House in the small hours of the morning, and on Sunday Peter will read the lesson in church...
(Yes, in spite of all their mutual angst about the Peter's potential failure, he solves this one in forty-eight hours.)
