Went on a little trip out yesterday, to a book conservation centre,

and the guy asked me if I wanted to see something really special.

He opened his safe and placed in my hands a letter Emily Bronte had 

written. The handwriting was tiny and I couldn't read it very well,

but it was so amazing. There was also a first edition of a book of her

poetry, which was being painstakingly restored. 

A good day! Kate, I recommend a visit if you're ever in the north of 

England!
