| 5 notesIt was Richard Littlejohn’s worst nightmare. Not just Cloake’s fruit compote and Scotch pancake – he is surely a bacon roll kind of guy – but 5,000 Guardianistas gathered under one roof at Kings Place in London at the weekend for a festival of reasonableness. The weather was perfect, proving that God, whatever the Bible might suggest, is a centrist. Stephen Moss sums up the Guardian’s first Open Weekend event, where we opened our offices and news organisation up to the public. More details on the events, the speakers - and some ways to catch up on highlights from the weekend.
