The most amazing building! And next door to where I work. My first peek today - can’t wait for the theatre and concert hall to open in the New Year. I’ll miss the old English Faculty - but this is a whole new direction for the Humanities to collaborate. Academically and creatively. #SchwarzmanCentre

A fascinating visit to the Tirzah Garwood exhibition Dulwich Picture Gallery today. Such a talent - restricted in marriage and cut short by her early death.

Fascinating visit to Hexham Abbey (and, inevitably, tearooms… 🙄). Carpe diem (and the Victoria sandwich…).

Another lovely day in Northumberland - today crab sandwiches in Craster, and a walk, beside crashing waves, to Dunstanburgh Castle… 😎
