In celebrating having passed the 5000 view mark, from 90 countries, Reading Room Asia is rather pleased. So I’m going a little left-field with my final post of the day.

James Wannerton tastes words when he reads or hears them. He noticed, at the age of 4, 49 years ago, that each London Underground station created a distinct taste. I think it’s great that lots of the tastes come from when he was a child. You can read more here.

I’m convinced there is a piece of theatre here, somewhere.
