Phyllis & Ada are working


Robert Mair was this morning’s guest on Radio 4’s Life Scientific.

During the course of the conversation it emerged that, as they spoke, Phyllis was busy tunnelling not far from Broadcasting House.

How lovely to think of her under the very streets which the eponymous Phyllis Pearsall so diligently explored on foot in the course of compiling her A to Z.
