Just awful to read of the death of Rachel Cooke. A brilliant, brilliant writer. So sharp, so warm and insightful. I adored her TV reviews.

One of the things I appreciate most about living in Norfolk is the fact that it induces a near-constant state of bewilderment. 1/3

Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s pen and ink drawing of himself mourning his wombat, showing a man kneeling over the corpse of a rotund wombat, its toes turned up. They are in front of tomb bearing the date 6th November 1869, and a palm tree
It’s 6 November, and you know what that means, don’t you? YES, THAT’S RIGHT. It’s the 156th anniversary of the death of Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s pet wombat
