I loved this but for the lack of a photo … fab memoir in the making. The memoir will be fascinating - my life isn’t fascinating since I had kids - to other people anyway. I look forward to it! I so wish I had written Metacognition for Morons! Good luck in the Med.
When I was 13 I got a desk from MFI for my birthday. It was black (MDF I imagine) and had a set of three drawers that sat underneath it.
It witnesses years of homework, GCSEs, A levels, etc then teaching work. Planning on Sunday afternoons at that desk in a flat, a tiny house and then a slightly bigger house.
It did eventually go and I too felt a loss. I grew up in some chaos and confusion and inanimate objects definitely meant/mean a lot. If I close my eyes I can still feel the pattern of that desk now.
I kept the drawers, and my husband, (who you know quite well I think) keeps his fancy Bjorn Borg underpants in them.

Gimme a hint re Hubbie.
I will. Your work is highly valued in this house ❤️. If you’re ever up North …
Palace fan!
Aha. Send him my love. I know a lot of those brutes but only one I'd give the time of day to.
