Philip Larkin's lost notebook of love poems to go on sale for £20,000 [UK]:
The poet kept the notebook on a bedside table in 1976 when he began an affair with Betty Mackereth, his secretary.
It slid down the back of the table where it remained for a quarter of a century before being found by a junk dealer and eventually sold to a book seller who is putting it up for sale on Thursday.
