It is obviously very good news that our planning application for the Founder’s Field will just be nodded through, despite the ridiculous suggestion that it’s not merely green belt but actually ancient woodland – I always felt the biomass garden was more trouble than it was worth, no matter how well the willow coffins are going in the shop.
But now I wonder: are we really thinking big enough?
I can’t call the north portico ramp a complete disaster, it really is doing remarkably well as a community skate park and bringing in a whole new demographic, which looks very impressive in our annual report, since we sent out our work experience genius with a clicker to count them all.
But I put it to you, since we are already franchising out the shop and café to gain level access entry, should we be going even further? Our eating experience partner is really excited about the Garum and Dormouse pie.
His future planners think it could really have legs and, going forward, can even envisage a small tastefully themed chain in some of our former Renaissance partners’ museums.
But they have also raised the feasibility of an entire food court here, complete with the Grendel’s Mother beer hall, and the King’s Kickflip aimed at our valued skaters.
As for the shop, the news there is fascinating. Because of the 500 space car park we can fit onto the rest of the Founder’s Field – representing, I have to remind you, a major saving on our grounds maintenance budget – other retailers are apparently clamouring to get in.
Embracing the digital age, in the form of a high-end consumer electronics outlet, is just the sort of can -do spirit our Founder would have saluted.
Now obviously this could have implications for our gallery space, both existing and projected. But I have just the faintest glimmer of an idea that could solve our space problems forever, even the Victorian garden shed collection, and the wretched lawn mowers. Call me crazy, but if nobody else wants the High Street – could we have it?
