How many joke political parties do we need?

Seen on a railing outside the Houses of Parliament.
Today is the first day of spring and St David's Day. Before the Gregorian calendar was introduced/imposed it was the first day of the year - in line with the natural world.
Today has been spent looking at still pictures in Tate Britain - including an amazing exhibition of
Don McCullin's photographs. The primary reason for visiting London is for me to spend the next two days previewing moving pictures (hopefully in both senses of the word) for next year's programme of Louth Film Club.
