Summary
A song that reminds me of Heybourne mixed with fall and a missing scene.
"Time in a Bottle" is set in Autumn 1820 and pays ode to one line in Sanditon S3 and the wedding preparations we wished we'd seen. It's also a nod to the happiness and joy that Heybourne and the town of Sanditon bring.
“The champagne’s gone back to the vintner.” Edward Denham, Sanditon, Autumn 1820
If I could save time in a bottle. The first thing that I'd like to do. Is to save every day 'til eternity passes away. Just to spend them with you.
Time in A Bottle, Jim Croce -

Summary
The men of Sanditon gather at The Owl, the town’s only pub. They decide it’s high time that the pub is given a more fitting name.
Written in December 2022 before we knew what would happen in S3, this is pure Sandisilliness that I hesitated to post because of the level of silliness involved. You know what, though, it's also a bit of a love letter to both S1 and S2, so why not? I've already written it, might as well share it.
If you’ve watched the show more times than is healthy (like me) then you will recognize most—if not all—of the references.
