Transcription Notes:
There is an an arrow drawn from the words "might think" down several lines pointing to the phrase beginning "after standing up"
Siobhan:- arrow indicates an insertion that Florence has written. I normally transcribe the arrow as an image and then add the insertion in where the writer intended the insertion to go.
Don't need start/end page at very beginning or very end of pages only when transferring btw pgs - see blue help tab top right corner
Put page number before title to be consistent with other pages in doc.
[[strikethrough]] text [[/strikethrough]] is TC standard to indicate stricken text. Don't need space betweet strike & through. The "/" indicating finishing of strikethrough is important to include.
