Hope you feel better very soon!! And please, please don't feel like you have to reply or do any fandom-related activities (like Poniatowski, I really hope you are not aggravating your back for that) -- of course we miss you, but your health is more important!
I hope the royal patron feels better soon :( Everything has closed here and everyone is pretty much in lockdown in preparation for the tsunami, hopefully soon enough, we'll see.
Also, wait, now, I can't believe that Catherine the Great's memoirs aren't available in English! ...it seems to be on gutenberg, is this another of those bowdlerized things? I'm still really annoyed about Wilhelmine's memoirs >:(
Thank you, I am taking all due care. I miss you guys too! I hope to be back soon.

I most certainly am not!

They may well be, I've just haven't dug deeply enough. The German ones were the first ones I turned up that had the episodes we were looking for.

I haven't checked, but I think that's the one-volume one selenak was complaining begins with her arrival in Russia and didn't have the dinner with Fritz episode. The German one is two volumes and has her meeting Fritz.

Also, yes, things are getting locked down here (Massachusetts) as well, and Royal Patron is in your neck of the woods, Southern California (Los Angeles in his case), where there are even more cases.
