I think I need to spend a weekend in Bristol. I’ve been to many places as a courier, but a delivery to a sweat shop on the outskirts (pun intended) was the nearest I got . Strangely enough, it was in a predominantly black area, but when I entered the factory it was full of white folk… ![]()
Some great art there.
Street art brings the surroundings to life.
A few more from Weston-super-Mud and environs.
The tiger is just a few paces from the oriental lady.
This one is on the High Street.
On the old road out of town.
There is always something to see and do in Brizzle.
This is a different kind of street art on the wall of the Eye Hospital.
Impressive stuff Fruitcake… ![]()
Might be an idea to visit Bristol over the next couple of weeks as Bedminster is hosting the Upfest again this year. Great street art - runs from 17th May to 2nd June
Thanks Sheila, I’ll see what’s in my diary… ![]()
Latest mural just painted in town next to me
Come and see the beautiful new mural behind An Bínsín Luachra in the Market which commemerates the death of 6 year old Patrick Morrissey in June 1921. He was Ishot in crossfire between RIC & IRA while playing marbles.
Street art is strictly not allowed in and around Chichester, but travel eastwards towards Brighton, then a whole new horizon opens up.
Not my vicinity, but a place I visited a few years ago. A small selection of the twenty or so flood-wall mural panels at Portsmouth, Ohio, USA.
It is well worth a visit if you are ever in that vicinity.
Angouleme 40 mins South of where we Live in Montalembert…Visit Angouleme quite often, has a decent man made beach on the huge lakes there…picnic, rug and the sunshine…makes for a pleasant day out.
Then the street art is amazing…
Been in that room a few times now…no more… our super French/Greek Doctor has only gone and moved to just outside of Paris now…

this is my favourite street art from Ennis in clare plenty more of them spread around the same town/
Exceptional Feey…

How you doin’?
Bearing up under the strain but, hey, I’m still in the land of the upright, so it’s all good.
How 'bout yourself?
Glad to hear you are still batting Fruitcake, I always start to worry if I don’t hear from friends for a while. We are all of a ‘Certain Age’ and I know you have had similar problems to me.
I’m reluctant to say I’m doing well Fruitcake because life usually sends you a curved ball if you get too complacent…But I’ve been feeling good just lately, and between the pacemaker and the meds, it looks like I might have a few years left yet…
Hi
No street art as such, however plenty of spray paint comments around the secondary school about the hectic lovelife of a very popular young lady.
