I am an enthusiastic book collector and am a member of The Penguin Collector's Society. I am proposing to spend the hour reading an early Penguin Edition (probably the first Penguin book ever issued) whilst sitting on my Penguin deck chair, wearing a Penguin T-shirt and drinking coffee (or perhaps champagne - if allowed !) from a Penguin Mug.
I am an admirer of Gormely's work and have followed in recent years the various events on the Fourth Plinth and thought this summer's project very innovative.
