Yup! Strange how times have changed – it used to be posh to show that you didn’t do any work and sat inside eating all day long 😉
Ice packs, now those are pretty definitely anachronistic! (though the hand fans are more suitable for Susan, given it’s during the empire and all that, constance – less so)
It’s not even that I don’t drink water I just tend to drink very little of anything during the day? Even less so at cons unless I remember to bring a bottle with me (and even then I’ll sit down on the train and go “oh gosh my throat is drryyyyy”) (heck yeah ribena wine, even if ribena is disgusting…)
haha yes, those were desirable qualities. Not so much now…which is a shame (he says sat inside on the computer having just eaten)
well…ice has probably been around a while (could jump in the thames that was deifnitly there in victorian times) when are fans? they’ve used them in flamenco dancing for ages I think, and deffinitly before 1830s cause fueilly! doesn’t seem quite in character though.
ah i do the same kind of thing actually (though sunday I think i just talked a lot at dinner and my throat hurt)
okay or something everyone likes to drink that maybe ooks suitably like wine…
