Please consider this your home until Monday. Have at it, my beautiful librarians and archivists! Any comments speculating about whether the divine Ms Carrie Fisher Has Had Work Done will be punted into the snow.

On a personal note, this has been both an amazing, incredible year for me and a challenging, sometimes overwhelming one, and, like Sherlock, it is always redeemed by the warmth and constancy of your internet friendship. I hope you all have a wonderful 2016, filled with friends and fulfilling work and love and food and books and original Netflix content and dogs.

Also, I STILL haven’t unpacked the tote boxes, so my house looks like the end of an Indiana Jones movie, but rest assured, you have not missed them!
