I've seen plotlines and Trim's flourish, but think that's the first marbled page I've seen!

Toured the home of one of my literary heroes today - Laurence Sterne’s Shandy Hall in Coxwold, North Yorks. Hung with the man himself afterwards. Kinda. Thank you @lsternetrust.bsky.social, ‘Tristram is the fashion’ and always will be.

How I wish I could get to Shandy Hall for this outbreak of surrealism!
Since it's Jane Austen's 250th birthday this year, let's not forget about this banger of Glenn Baxter's:

Three cowboys on their mounts in a moonlit canyon.
The caption is "The Meetings of the Jane Austen Society were every other Wednesday."
