Summary

Happy Thursday! Jane and Fi muse over the duality of the cake slicer, imagine a youthful Jane clasping her briefcase and a Flemish train map, and consider the effectiveness of a silent siren.


Plus, Princess Margaret's former lady-in-waiting Lady Glenconner discusses her latest book ‘Manners and Mischief’.


We've announced our next book club pick! 'Just Kids' is by Patti Smith.
