Thursday is National Poetry Day and the theme of this year's celebration is work. In workplaces up and down the country there'll be all kinds of cunning poetry stunts. A City law firm plans to hold a board meeting in which only verse will be spoken. HSBC will host a reading by a Kazakh poet at its Canary Wharf headquarters. Shop workers at the Co-op in Penzance will offer poems in a tin to customers.
