Just crossed my mind, with a name like Mediatricks, that you'd been suprisingly clever, and tricked us all into providing a media, in which to promote the businesses you represented.
Guess not.
We digress, back to the subject of the thread, 'the value of public funded art.
Perhaps the reason the fundings costs of the Victorian Swimming Gala are being kept (sort of) secret, until after the event, unlike all the others, is because the public will indeed be very shocked.
Not at the vast amounts of money involved, but because it's so cheap, and that we'd therefore not have very high expectations, when it comes to assessing the quality of the performance.
Perhaps the shock, and the real reason the funding costs are being cloaked in secrecy, is that the performing clowns will be heading back to Yorkshire, not with sack loads of Hyndburn payers' taxes, but five loaves, two fishes, and a black pudding between them, as their fee.
