Thank you Louise (and Kurt!) for this immediate analysis - I like the idea of the wider significance of these gardens; hate the idea we'll be focussing in on child misery! That's always only been at the edges of these novels and that is where I want it to stay. However, on the plus side maybe a bit more contact with children might make our duo rethink their attitudes...

So exciting

The statue was unveiled by the Earl of Shaftesbury - same guy I believe as the Eros/Anteros statue of Cuckoo’s Calling

🤞for another proposal in front of a statue?

Robert doesn't seem like a particularly romantic figure before which to propose, but Robin likes books, so maybe she's appreciate it. Beats shouting in a staircase.

Ah true! Maybe he’ll pick one of the other statues in the embankment 🤣

Thank you for the information! Every little tidbit we get I’ll take, and it definitely connects to great points and possibilities you’ve made.
