Just had our music leader call me from Reno where she is completely socked in by a blizzard - "Sorry for the last minute notice, but needless to say I won't be there to lead the worship tomorrow morning..."

*facepalm* Oh no...not another round of my trying to lead the congregation acapella... Here's hoping I at least will have a guitarist.

I tell ya, there are times having a small church is great, and there are times I really envy those warehouses with a gajillion instrumentalists in them... momentarily...

I'm teaching about John Calvin tomorrow (a guy who really isn't as bad as his reputation makes him) and the Swiss Reformation - but first a little mindless wandering on LJ.

Hi Tuile! I've seen that set, or parts of it, from time to time while looking for my own copies. They are pretty but overpriced, and there are more titles than those to be had as well. There's lately been some of them being reprinted as paperbacks and ebay has been my friend to watch for older copies of the out-of-print ones. You can also read ALL them online at Blakeney Manor - a great resource when they are so hard to track down and a great site for those of us who enjoy Percy and co. The books are listed in chronological order for the tales.

Two of my faves are "The Elusive Pimpernel" and its sequel "El Dorado" - "Sir Percy Hits Back" has a fascinating look at Chauvelin's home life too. "Sir Percy Leads the Band" has a wonderful turn of events as well... oh, just go ahead and read all of them. ;-)
