As Lady Penelope observed the bustling activity in Trevelver Castle, her keen eye caught sight of a sight that brought a smile to her lips. Walking arm in arm, amidst the flurry of guests and servants, were Jim and Monique, their faces alight with joy and affection. Here was one plan that seemed to have been successful.

Delighted by this newfound companionship, Lady Trevelver's heart warmed at the sight of two more guests who had forged a connection amidst the turmoil of recent events. It was a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of camaraderie.

With a nod of approval and a subtle smile, Lady Penelope silently wished them well on their budding romance, knowing that their bond would only strengthen in the days to come. As they disappeared into the throng of guests, she felt a sense of optimism for the future, knowing that love had once again found its way into the hearts of those within the walls of Trevelver Castle.

Jeremy, Sylvia, Giles, and Eli exchanged surprised glances as they realised that their down-to-earth hardworking Cornish friend Jim Tremayne and the opinionated bourgeois Parisienne Monique Gournay had become romantically involved. There was a mixture of astonishment and delight in their expressions, tinged with a hint of wry amusement at the seemingly unexpected turn of events. They shared knowing smiles, acknowledging the chemistry between Jim and Monique that had seemingly blossomed overnight to transform them into another pair of blissful lovers after the Christmas Eve-Morning Grand Ball. Despite their initial surprise, Jeremy and Giles felt genuinely happy for their easy-going friend, recognising the newfound love that had ignited between the unlikely pair.

Only Lady Penelope, with her keen observation skills and understanding of human nature, had been able to see through Monique's outwardly opinionated and haughty demeanour. Beneath the confident facade, Lady Penelope had discerned vulnerability and loneliness. Monique's secret fear of being superficially valued for her appearance rather than her inner qualities resonated with Lady Penelope. This insight allowed Lady Penelope to offer the young Parisienne the support and understanding she needed in her longing to find a trustworthy man who would see beyond her undoubted physical beauty.

Lady Penelope had recognised the potential for a love match between Jim Tremayne and Monique Gournay through subtle cues she had observed in Chelsea. Despite their apparent differences in background and temperament, Lady Penelope had noticed a natural chemistry between them, evidenced by their shared laughter, meaningful glances, and mutual respect. She saw how Jim admired Monique's confidence and creativity, while Monique appreciated Jim's reliability and practicality.

Additionally, Lady Penelope appreciated how their contrasting personalities complemented each other, with Jim's grounded nature providing stability and Monique's vivacity adding excitement to their dynamic. From these observations, Lady Penelope deduced that Jim and Monique's differing qualities had the potential to create a strong and balanced relationship, making them a promising love match. From there, all it took was a few words to her husband to ensure that Jim would be in the same helicopter as Giles and Lisa. While Lady Penelope's hopes for Lisa and Riccardo were not realised, she had a third couple in mind.

My favourite restaurant in Hobart, nay, Tasmania, the Indian restaurant in Battery Point.

I'd like to send that Steve Harley clip to my daughters, but I'm useless with videos. I click on 'share' but it takes me to Facebook or Tik Tok or crap like that. Any  easy way of doing it, like Whatsapp or something?
