OFFS!! In Britain, a woman's fanny is NOT her backside, so dropping her on it would be a) difficult and b) rather painful. I'm sure a gentleman in regency times would never have referred to such a thing. Arse, yes. Bum or bottom, maybe. Backside perhaps if he wanted to be less shocking. I'm sorry; I must seem ridiculously pedantic to some, but things like this really spoil a reading experience.

*rolls eyes* Here is a massively WRONG conclusion. Watch me as I jump to it!

While relieved the heroine has said "knickers" rather than "panties" - neither term is correct for the early 19th century!
