Margot Robbie dons scarlet latex, Kate Bush lookalikes, and a glass of Emily brew: my whirlwind dive into Brontë fever
On a crisp afternoon in Haworth, West Yorkshire, I find myself sipping an Emily Brontë amber ale at The Kings Arms pub. This isn't just any beer – it's a homage to the legendary writer and part of a themed selection featuring other Brontë siblings, including Anne (a classic ale), Charlotte (an IPA), and Branwell (a porter). The bartender tells me Emily's version, with its malty biscuit notes, is the favorite – fitting, as Emerald Fennell, the Oscar-winning director, is speaking

Holiday indulgence: favorite goodies we grab in European supermarkets
Belgium: ‘The scent of spices in mustard shops draws me in’ My passion for Belgian treats began during a ride in the amateur Tour of Flanders. The refreshment stops were packed with Meli honey waffles and honey cake. I devoured so many that I felt their absence deeply once they were gone, especially after finishing the demanding 167-mile cycling route.
