Louise Brealey Instagram – I match my van now. I’m parked in my friend’s drive. They don’t know I’m here. They’re expecting me tomorrow. It’s a big drive. There is a fly in here. Gilbert is sparko. Today has been full of marvels. Cresting the hill down to Robin Hood’s Bay just after dawn, the sea suddenly dark and grand. Following the bright river of road across the moors, rusty bracken, grass brighter green because it’s wet, the way a pebble is before you get it home. A sudden thought. The last time I drove the roads to the beach, I was going to my mama. And I belted out Country Roads all the way. That fly is going to be very annoying. He’s quiet and then he buzzes again, just as you’ve forgotten he’s there. He’s a big fucker. Warkworth, Northumberland
