The Greatest Show on Earth

...is an interesting question.  The reading for South 54 tonight in the Square Tower, OId Portsmouth, was a great success with everybody giving an impressive account of themselves. My own act, lovingly featured here because I haven't really got permission from other readers to use photographs of them, does still include a few poems but prefers to shamelessly lift bits from Ken Dodd, Tommy Cooper and Leonard Sachs, any of who I would probably have preferred to be.

It isn't really right to review an event for which one chose the poets and was a part of oneself so it's best to say that it went tremendously well so thanks very much to the South Management Committee, Mr. Richard Williams, the entire company but, chiefly, yourself.
