The recent British Library Mingle attempted to spark romance between some over-educated romantics.
I'm rather on the prowl for a Lara," confessed a nervous, middle-aged Dr Zhivago, as three young Eves discussed the Plantagenets at his elbow. "I'm looking for an ice maiden - but one my own age."
Too bad that the modern library, which opened in 1997, had "none of the sexual charge that used to crackle around the old, round reading room at the British Museum", according to an older "Narcissus seeking Narcissus". [via LISNews]
