Louise Brealey Instagram – Christmas 2023. You used to shout like Noddy Holder up the stairs. It’s Chriiiiiiiistmas! And at the end of the day you’d boil up a vat of turkey broth because it was my favourite. Last Christmas was sharp and strange and brittle and this, the second without you, was more slowly sad. An ache. Ah mum, I miss you. My dear friend @rooboyd made me A Creature Carol, which I have opened just now before I go to bed. It is made of love and so is she. Goodnight, I hope you felt loved today.
