The number of mobiles snatched on the street. And the former Childrens Laureate Michael Rosen laments the loss of britains Libraries. Im sangry, thats what i am, sad and angry about this, that this wonderful facility that weve had, and perhaps taken for granted, has been eroded just bit by bit, taking it away from us.
