You are a reporter. Think of something you've seen today. Describe what you saw. Remember the details that only a witness would know. Don't comment. Don't judge. Like this: "An old lady eating a fish. A fried fish on a white tray, no chips, in a doorway out of the rain, breaking bits off. Her pink bonnet like a film star’s." What you write will be completely anonymous. You can be as personal or intimate as you like. This is a record of things that have happened. It was started at Sandpit at the Victoria and Albert Museum on 26th March 2010. You are not a historian.
