TERRY Smith is pleased that the Barbican Centre is reopening on May 10 and congratulates all involved (Letters, May 5). Short memory I am afraid, Terry.
In February, Nigel Ayre promised that it would open in ten weeks (ie April 22) and would feature 350 acts or events per year.
I shall not be surprised to discover in 12 months time that this estimate was inflated. Had it been a financial estimate from a councillor, the opposite would apply, of course.
