We may regret it, but we're allowing #CuratorRob out in public. We've hosed him down and locked his cider shed, so it'll be fine, right?🙏😬
For ONE NIGHT ONLY (15 Jan, 8pm) he's giving an online talk about the recent discoveries at Palace. Huxley may feature.
£5 plus booking fee. bit.ly/flaevents

You know you’ve married a gem when he takes you to London for 2 days, and the first 2 stops are secondhand bookshops where I find 10 books for my studies and he then carries them for me! Romance certainly not dead after 28 years of marriage ❤️.
