Things to cut before closing libraries: Why not make the Queen's Diamond Jubilee really special?
I love the Queen. She’s great isn’t she? She’s like your gran. Like your incredibly rich gran who has a lovely range of brooches and hats. And this year is her Diamond Jubilee. Woohoo! Get that bunting out and have a street party. Or, as the government would have it, “get that lady a new bloody great boat”.
Now, much as I love a good boat (who wouldn’t love that as a present), it strikes me as a little, er, over-the-top. I mean, boats are lovely presents but is it really necessary in a time of austerity. So here’s a suggestion. Instead of a spanking new boat, why not buy one of these lovely Diamond Anniversary Gift Boxes. Not only will the Queen be able to read the newspaper of her choice published on the day of her coronation (a great thing in itself as surely she wouldn’t have had time to do so on the day) but it’ll save £59,999,960. Bonus. And as an extra bonus, why not invest some of that money in our public libraries? Now that would be a legacy we can all appreciate. God Save The Queen, The Queen Saves The Libraries. Nice.
Library saving rating: 5/5

From the brilliant cambridgenoir:
At Granchester Orchard I found my quarry had eluded me once again; but I was gaining on him. The deck chair was warm, and the scone crumbs fresh.
