We took photos at the Tube stations where we felt literary connections. As you may remember, Canterbury Tales begins in Southwark, not too far from Charing Cross. (But we forgot to get the photo at the Southwark station, alas.) Ned can recite the full intro to Chaucer's tale in Middle English. Not to be outdone, Mary Beth recited the London Bridge nursery rhyme.
Practice those nursery rhymes now - they are VERY hard to remember at 3am! And we're so glad the diaper blog post helped someone - that's exactly what we were hoping for!!
ReplyDeleteI have a tape with the Prologue in Middle English (left over from my teaching days). We can listen to see if Ned recites it correctly.
