Progress etc
Got a little work done today-
This morning I had to go to an appointment a bus ride away. As ever I was impressed by the murals on the walls and those on the shop shutters. A few examples-
There are more. The local shop , which used to sell model railway stuff, but now is a predominantly die cast car shop has Thomas the Tank engine on the shutter , for example. Alan Tradgardland.
Interesting murals and thankfully undamaged. It would be wrong to go back Banksy style and respray some tiny vintage toy soldiers into both garden and Lego scenes ... I notice the Special Forces Crack Display Team (Of Morris Dancers?) Dorset castings? Ready to parachute into trouble zones and perform an English Haka?
Wow.....these are all really cool Alan!
