Art / Economics / Names

Art: In the north west of Trafalgar Square is the Fourth Plinth (since 1999, a space for contemporary art).

Suggest one or two things that would be worthy additions to the Fourth Plinth.

Economics: Credit crunch, inflation, soaring fuel prices, multilateral cuts in interest rates, banking crises, secure savings, overseas investments, financial reserves...

Have you learned anything (big or small) or been surprised by anything during the recent and ongoing higgledy-piggledy in the markets?

Names: I can't get the name Barbara Broccoli out of my head - it's just too good a name.

What would be your food name?

Travel / Words / Arts

TRAVEL: Literally or metaphorically,

'Think of a journey that felt rather long. What was that journey?'

WORDS: Complete the line,

‘You’re only as good as your…’

ARTS: This morning, I awoke to a news reference to ‘sporting hero Sebastian Coe’. By way of opening the Cultural Olympiad, he’s to take part in Martin Creed’s ‘Work No 850’ at Tate Britain. This got me thinking:

‘What would be an interesting and inspiring way to launch a four-year arts and cultural programme?’
