We have something old and interesting to show you today. This is the Geneva Bible or Breeches Bible. It dates to 1607!

We are looking at a slightly beaten up and aged leather book witt broken hasps. We are looking at the same leather bound book from the side showing the yellow, aged and worn pages. Remnants of two leather hasps and their fixings can still be seen.

Poor shieldbugs! The below-the-line commenters this morning don't seem to be big fans...

It was a lot of leaps and bounds frogging trains die to delays, but now home with cat and wine and all is well. It was a genuine joy to meet you, Nic, I hope we’ll stay in touch xx

It’s fab isn’t it. I’m so pleased you liked it!

I have also accidentally been the recipient of an email not meant for me, that was about me. Awful. Xxx

ESSENTIAL READ this morning, because it’s superbly written and I 100% agree with every word…

How come existential doom from AI is sexy, and existential doom from global warming isn’t?

Fascinating. Grim.

@wendypratt.bsky.socialSep 10, 2026, 7:38 AM

Certainly is grim!

“The trouble with you, Spode, is that just because you have succeeded in inducing a handful of half-wits to disfigure the London scene by going about in black shorts, you think you’re someone. You hear them shouting “Heil, Spode!” and you imagine it is the Voice of the People.” Bertie Wooster

So last year LIVES OF THE FEMALE POETS came out, my first collection in eight years, and I worked really hard on getting back into the poetry scene. Teaching three residential courses, two online, lots of one-off workshops, mentoring, reviewing regularly, writing a poetry substack… 1/3
