Chit chat: Creative writing continued
Perhaps the Lib Dems should have got Amanda to inject some poetry into their recent report on the future of the arts - The Power of Creativity.
It certainly would have distracted from a couple of glaring errors in the document, which, aside from the slip-ups, actually has some interesting things to say. A shame then, that it begins with a ‘forward’, rather than the more customary ‘foreword’ and that the Lib Dems were equally creative with the spelling of The Millenium [sic] Gallery.
Worst of all, though, was the kooky design of the whole document, which had strange multicoloured splodges adorning each page, making it look like a group of Teletubbies had collectively suffered from nosebleeds while reading a draft of the report.
Unfortunately, judging from the mistakes, Laa-Laa, Dipsy et al might have also been doing the proof reading.
