There arent any 'girls' as yet.  I put that in the first post.  I thought it would give us a chance to get to know the family and staff before the girls arrived.<br/><br/>*Please, it is important to read the first post*<br/><br/>As I see it the girls would be arriving in the next day or two.  They would be there to spend Christmas and get a feel for things.  I dont see them being broken in until after christmas, just a chance to allow them to get settled and see they arent going to be abused or bullied.  Some might be suffering from being on the streets and would need a few days to feel better.<br/><br/>Heres the paragraph that mentions there being no girls<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Dinner was done, the house now fell into that quiet peacefulness that often happened after a day spent busily working.  The staff were in their quarters, or the huge warm kitchen, sipping tea and eating their own dinner.  There were no 'girls' at the moment, the last lot had been sold and sent on their way a week earlier.  A good profit had been made, and one girl had been kept on at the Manor as Hawkins, the Butler had taken quite a shine to young Evie.  Constance was pleasantly relaxed as she returned to her rooms, she would read a few pages of a book she was enjoying and then call her lady's maid to help her undress and prepare for bed.  Of course plans could change rapidly, and they often did.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><br/>You might just have to edit your intro posts.  Sorry not to have noticed, I'm going away today for the weekend and been getting organised.  So please feel free to have the family and staff posting and any maids.  There may be a girl left over from the last sale, if so she vcan be helping the staff.  IE Annalisa being Connie's maid.<br/><br/>Hope that clears things up :)
