Emily Ruth, good work! Six stamps left to find! :)
Rhoswen Fairie Wrose, I've been getting maleware notices too when I go there. I've just been ignoring them and so far my computer has been fine (but then I have a strong Anti-virus program). I'll pass the word on to Little Lady so she knows.

I never thought that I would say this, but I rather hate Colonel Brandon at the moment, as I cannot find him anywhere, and he is the last stamp I need to find!
I found him, I found him, I found him... I think?
Right at the bottom of the Sense and Sensibility 2008 review post on Elegance of Fashion!
I'm not sure though if this is the Colonel Brandon stamp though because the picture is not showing properly, but when I click on it, it links back to the official post about the Jane Austen birthday assembly on Old Fashioned Charm like all the other stamps did. It's a wide guess, but it's no where else on the blog!

Struggling to find Colonel Brandon... :X
Sarah,
Congrats! You found all 16 stamps! Good work!
Jemimah C,
Good work on finding 13 of the stamps! Yeah, Miss Lizzy and I did hide at least one of our's in more difficult places. :)
Scullery Maid,
You found 15 of the stamps, just the Colonel Brandon stamp to find! Good work!
Emily Ruth,
Good work! Just 4 more to find!
BatZion,

I believe I found Colonel Brandon at the end of Elegance of Fashion's Review: Sense and Sensibility (2008) post. The link is there connecting the stamp with the JABA Scavenger Hunt, but the image isn't loading for me.
Kiri Liz,
You were correct on the location of the Colonel Brandon stamp which means you're the second person to find all 16 stamps! Good work!
