John Hegley and some young fans get poetic!

The blue chairs enjoy poetry especially if it makes them laugh and think. After they had left this fantastic event, which was part of the Shrewsbury book festival, a poem was found where the chairs had been spotted. I have managed to obtain a copy for you and here it is. " We are blue, we are chairs, sometimes 'sitters' leave their hairs, from their bums or from their heads, put them somewhere else instead!" I think you will agree a classic of its genre!

Blue Chairs meet Charles Tyrwhitt and two of his shirts!

The Blue Chairs are not usually known for their fashion sense as they are comfortable with their blueness. So this is a very rare sighting indeed.
