Poetry: It's National Poetry Day on Thursday...

...and a heap-load of stuff going on, to use the technical term, will be going on at the Southbank Centre, as well as right round the country.

The theme of the day this year is 'Games', and in Katy Evans-Bush's words, "the event will be like a sort of giant poetry fête: there will be poetry quizzes, poetry bingo, poetry cupcakes, a drop-in poetry surgery, and even poetry cupcakes! And Julia Bird will be running a Poembola!"

Seriously, go here and here, for just a mere bagatelle of all that you can look forward too. Hashtag will be #NPDLive
