Would you like to come on our podcast and talk about what you love about Philip Larkin's work? It could be a favourite poem, novel, letter, review or article. Or one of his contemporaries - Amis, Pym, Lawrence, Jennings, Frost for example? We're looking for new guests, so do get in touch.

Yes all this, and paintings of Highland cattle on the walls.
What would this pub be like?
Jazz & a huge fire?
Menu something like:

*
Awful pie
*
Hedgehog (jammed)
No children, students or other undesirables allowed presumably.

Great view from our hotel in Kings Cross. All the clouds are funneling down into the British Library, as they should.

We took the dog for a walk in the cemetery this morning a bit earlier than usual so it was dark and silent. She refused to leave our side. Is now sleeping it off.

Note to commuters traveling in the living room area outside the kitchen: delays may occur due to a… spill. Teams have been dispatched but the exact nature of the fluffy white substance is unknown so we cannot give a time estimate for cleanup.
