The NHS might be struggling right now, but thank goodness no one in the UK will be asked to pay $807.96 for insulin. We must never stop fighting to keep it that way.

Thanks @PaintingsLondon for sharing this impactful painting in our collection. Both the subject Gillian 'Bobbie' Tanner & the artist Mary Pitcairn were Auxiliary Firewomen. They had bravely volunteered to join the Auxiliary Fire Service in #WWII to protect London & Londoners.

Really interesting day - great speakers and lots to think about. Oh, and playing with the tech was lots of fun too!

Harper Collins paid £2 million for Boris Johnson's memoirs. Booksellers are left with piles and piles of unsold books. When are they going to learn to invest in real writing talent rather than throwing ridiculous amounts of cash on politicians and celebrities?


Worth a visit if you're in the area - it's a great exhibition! #Subbuteo @theamelia_tw

An exhibition celebrating the history of Subbuteo has opened up in Tunbridge Wells. The free event, being held at the Amelia Scott, is showcasing rare memorabilia and giving visitors the chance to have a go themselves.
