"Let's not get too cocky," says Bronwyn. "There'll be another one coming along right behind."
How true those words are, even today.

The last words of Anaxagoras were "Give the lads a holiday"
Well, reason and common sense notwithstanding the End Of The National Year Of Reading Event took place and was A Big Success. Which is to say that enough people came along to justify the expense of hiring choir, juggler and poet but not so many as to have T.Aldous and Mary making noises about fire regulations. Bronwyn and Maybelle put up some good displays; the children joined in with Frog's audience participation stuff; Nancy did a really good Silent Storytime for toddlers; and Mary actually brought the mince pies in a couple of hours before the event started.
How true those words are, even today.

You've lost me. Unless the "other one coming along right behind" is another themed year. Is 2009 The National Year Of Swindon? Boom boom!!
Hi Gadj,
For every crisis negotiated there's another waiting in the wings waiting for its cue from the maestro.
I think we should dedicate 2009 as The National Year of Swindon.
