Jan and Elizabeth have always stayed in my mind as an example of what love can be. Of course, no one can really know the truth of a relationship apart from the people in it. I’m sure it was messy and hard. But at the same time, the record is clear: two marriages, 59 years apart, to the same person.

Bringing down the glasses I found in my office this morning and reminding myself that this is NOT a problem it is a USEFUL behaviour because M Night Shyamalan taught me that when aliens come to earth we will NEED glasses of water in every room in the house to defeat them.

The thing I love about cryptic crosswords is they’ll make you physically angry at them. Look at this one! I screamed FOR GOD’S SAKE at it when I got it. Perfection.
