Library Royale

My name is Blakeley - Virginia Blakeley and I love quirky. Anything that is a bit out of the ordinary or makes me think out of the box or is a bit strange I rather like. Last night I did something which I consider quirky. I met James Bond in my local library. I saw the very loud, action-packed, exciting Casino Royale (Craig not Niven) at my local library.

It was fab. Sat amongst the book shelves, watching Mr Bond in his swimming trunks, running an awful lot as it turned out, surviving ordeal after ordeal. I loved the fact I could walk down from 88 to the impromptu cinema and that I was in an film arena of books watching a film of a book.

Just a thought -  if Hyde Library is shut and moved to Hyde Town Hall will there be the room to hold such events? I am sure these evenings raise the profile of the library and encourage more people to go through the doors. Not to mention the enjoyment they give. Just something for Councillors and managers to bear in mind. Well done to the staff at Hyde Library for organising the event.
