Dan Brown is awesome. Angels and Demons is such a good book. (I read it when I was I was about 14 when I read it, but my point still stands)

This only happens to you once

A still life painting with dark background. It depicts a woven wicker basket piled high with plums - about 20 are visible - sitting on a wooden ledge or table. In front of the basket are about 10 apricots. At the left of the painting a white cockatoo sits on the surface, facing the fruit. In the right bottom corner is a plum cut in half, with the stone removed and the cut side up. At the top right is a blue tit, facing across the top of fruit.

Baby Turkey at MQ. Made my day 🥲🐣

I think I would cry at her grave and especially Anne Boleyn’s.

Wonderful to see so many pomegranates (Catherine’s badge) and flowers at the grave of Catherine of Aragon in Peterborough Cathedral. I think she would approve of her tomb memorial, which is simple but effective, naming her as Queen #peterborough #catherineofaragon #tudor

Hat Badge: Woman Choosing Between Youth and Old Age c. 1520 probably Flemish, Mechelen (Met Museum) The cynical inscription: “Love does much. Money does everything”.
