I have just ordered the video tapes having written to all the tv stations without success, they told me there were no tapes available! Naughty TV Stations! |

| Comments: When the end of the world seems to be in sight, EFBenson is the only cure. At his worst he is more entertaining than most people at their best. He's on my short list of people I want to meet in the hereafter. Thank you for making this lovely page available to us. |

| Comments: Thank you so much, Garden Keeper. What a magnificent site. I thought I was reasonably familiar with late 19th century and early 20th century American illustrators, being a descendent of the fellow who taught N.C. Wyeth how to draw, but my ignorance is now for all to know: you have introduced me to the wonderful Mr. Plank, and I am completely besotted. The billowing dresses remind me of the illustrations in a children's book printed in the 1940/50s, and I am setting myself to wondering if they could have been done by the same Plank genius. I suggest a visit to #4: could those be the Misses Antrobuses about to frolic on the Riseholme green? For everything on your site, thank you Garden Keeper. I have spent the most enjoyable time this evening getting to know all of your friendly, fun faces at your happy gathering events. I certainly look forward to summer 2000 and being a part of a Bensonista gathering. It's almost ll p.m. here in Barcelona so it's time for...dinner! Withers |

| Comments: I had another look at the wonderful guest book and to my utter chagrin found that my first message congratulating the Gardenroom Keeper seems to have gone astray somewhere in cyber space. Therefore I will simply have to say it again. The gardenroom is a wonderful place to visit again and again. Bibelot |

BENSON: "Fanatic" is perhaps more apt--since 1977. DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE BENSON CHARACTER: My devotion is equally shared by between Mapp and Lucia |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Comments: What a very special site--gorgeously conceived and executed! Miss Mapp's view from the Garden Room alone makes it a "must visit" for any M&L devotee; but there is so much more here to rewrd us. The George Plank material, so elusive to any but dedicated scholar/sleuths such as yourself, is particularly interesting. Great work, Nancy! |

Your presentation is fresh and straightforward, shows loving research, and is provided in a form that's easy on the "peepers." Benson himself would applaud your efforts as would George Plank, I'm sure. Keep up the good work and count me in as a frequent visitor whose inquiring mind wants to know more!
