Nice pic gbb

If it isn't too painful, what did he do?

He borrowed a bike off me and then rode into the back of me damaging both.

6.30 this morning...guy walking his dog looked at me like i was a nutter....i had to stand so far back to get it all in.
I wish i knew what the hell the graffiti said...but that wouldnt be the point then, would it.

Edited to update.....i realise now it says 'Link'. The guys been around for some time, and his 'work' is getting really quite complex.
10 years ago, he was probably a glue sniffing oik, hell bent on (poorly) tagging anything and everything, why you little bastar......

Obviously he's now progressed to an older oik

The graffiti boards have caused quite a stir locally. I think the ideas fantastic....but the council, in their infinate wisdom, stuck two of these up.....right next to the main road passing through the estate...so everyone who passes HAS to look at it.
Fcukwits....there are so many quiet, out of the way spots it could have gone....no...its got to be right in your face

Anyway....outraged locals were'nt to be outdone.....'someone' sawed through all the posts on one of them.....it was found flat on the floor, just a few days after being erected

why would you write 'link' on a wall?

Here is the bridge carrying the A64 over the York to Selby "Solar System" cycleway:

And yet again, I got thoroughly wet getting a picture for this challenge. It's not raining in the pictures, but it started raining very heavily half an hour later and still hasn't stopped.

Does this count as grafiti?

I went for a bit of a spin up to t'moors today. Coming into Kilburn, I came across this abomination on White Horse Bank (and no, I don't mean the vintage saddlebag).

Go upwards to the skyline from the saddle of my was-once-a-Galaxy and you can see what I'm talking about. If you squint a bit, it looks a bit like some kind of leucistic equine. What sort of cad would despoil the view with such a blatant act of vandalism?

Ah, it says here it was either Thomas Taylor or John Hodgson, in 1857. Birch too good for them I say...

Actually, you can see the white horse from most of the eastern side of the Vale of York on a clear day. They say if you can see it, it's going to rain, and iif you can't see it.... (all together now)


it's already raining.

It's not graffiti Uncle - it's just a bit of horseplay.

[rich p]

I'm off on my hols tomorrow so I executively have decided that gbb is indeed the winner.
Unless anyone disagrees!

 

[Amanda P]

I'll go along with that. What's the next challenge, then?

I don't know. We need to find gbb now that we've mislaid Longers!
