During ‘The Chimes of Big Ben’ outside the Recreation
Hall, after the awards have been made at the Exhibition of Arts and Crafts. The
Brass Band plays, and Number 2 and other citizens stand applauding two of the
award winners on the steps of the Recreation Hall. Not only is Number 38
pleased with herself, in having gained an award for her tapestry, she also comes
away with 2,000 free work units. There appears to be a genuine community spirit
going on. People having enjoyed themselves, they are happy, it seems a joyous
time, otherwise what’s it all in aid of? I like to think there are genuine
times when the citizens are happy enough, and can be left to enjoy themselves.
The event of the Exhibition of Arts and Crafts being one of them, and no doubt
The Village Festival was another.
Be seeing you
