Why BBW?

If you have insider info please share it.

The campaign handed over 3700 signatures last night to the Mayor. Read more here:

I think the library may say "Rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated" BBW. But feel free to huff and puff away...

Oh, I don't have any inside information, Lee. I was just being facetious, as usual.

Hello all - in case you missed the bit about the tea party in Lee's message here it is:

We have decided to celebrate the library's 106th birthday tomorrow at 11am with a tea party outside the library. Come along with the family, bring cake and tea and party hats. There will be some games for the little ones. Please come out in your numbers for a bit of Saturday fun with the main aim of SAVING OUR LIBRARY!

PLEASE, PLEASE COME ALONG AND INVITE ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBOURS. Lets make this the best tea party Sydenham has seen!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SYDENHAM LIBRARY!
