Yesterday I did some work in the library during the morning, and left at noon for a three mile walk to Haddon Hall, where they filmed Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice. After a long walk, I found out that the house and gardens were actually closed. However, the gift store was still open (of course), so I went in to inquire as to why the opening times on the website and brochure didn't match the actual opening times.
Apparently, they are filming Jane Eyre (again)....so it will only be open on weekends for several months. Needless to say, it was quite a let down.
The walk back wasn't as bad. I read basicaly the whole way, enjoying the weather, but not the cars that sped by.
I've gotten a lot of reading done, and made good progress on my papers that are due in (gasp!) six days.
Today I will try to get more work done, and visit Chatsworth if the rain stays away.
