OK two week’s worth in one! Monday 7th September 6pm to 7pm was Lucy Richards had a good sound system and sang to the crowd. Tuesday 8th between 5pm and 6pm was Molekilby who was giving out books to raise awareness of the Bookcrossing movement. Wednesday 9th at my usual time was Okey who made sausages! Monday 14th from 6pm to 7pm was Ben S who ran a pub quiz calling his pub the Plinth of Wales! He had people handing out question papers. I saw me again on the video, closing up my camera and walking away! Friday 18th at usual time was Tricia who asked friends to write her letters to read out on the plinth.

Definitely slowing down a bit! Wednesday at my usual time, between 5pm and 6pm, was 2621 who was doing a soduko when I passed but he had had a flip chart and display of pictures which were significant to him. Friday usual time was Ralph who was supporting the Chicago 2016 Olympic bid. No very exciting.
