If you can't be bothered to click, there were over 1000 votes and the winner was Blue Shop Cottage / Alphabetics Anonymous.

Hi Sue

Over 1000 people participated in the vote to choose an artist, which was fantastic. Blue Shop Cottage/Alphabetics Anonymous were the winners and are on-site now!!! VERY exciting!


Lots of people stopping to talk to them. If you are free today or tomorrow, pop down and say hi to Jake, Hannah, Ocki and Nathan.


If you can't the mural will be finished Monday morning. We're very excited for ED to see the end result. We love it, and we hope you all do too.

Am honestly gutted at being tied up the whole weekend, really wanted to get some photos of the piece from start to finish : (


On the positive side, having seen the artists other work, I just know its going to be fantastic and something I'll enjoy seeing every time I pass the station, and yes, doing creative work in horrible weather is a real test on ones patience, so extra kudos to them for that!


So happy to see the area getting more street art : )

Hi Cat


We have those! So you can copy them once the piece is complete. Email is at [email protected], or check out the website next week.


The artists also have a friend creating a short film about the piece and documenting progress, so as soon as that is live, we'll let you know too.

The gang are back on it in this horrible weather and making awesome progress! Say HI if you are passing.


Special thanks to the two d*ckheads who pointlessly scrawled on the wall overnight. Which brings us to our next stage: We are about to crowdfund for the long term protection of the wall, which is over and above the budget for the creation of the mural. We want this to be a lovely asset to the area for a long time, and we will be asking ED residents to help protect it. The Forest Hill community raised over ?2500 in 72hrs for the creation and protection of their mural, which is awesome, and we hope you will all get behind your mural too. As soon as this is live, we'll let you all know.

Hi Kate


Thanks so much for your comment. We agree! The mural looks incredible. BSC&AA were working in the dark until 9.30pm last night to finish it, and we are so happy with the end result.


In terms of preparation, yes, it needs protected or it'll get damaged. Within the budget, we were able to put a sealant on it today to protect it short term against defacement, HOWEVER longer term, we are about to crowdfund to protect it long term with more anti-graffiti coating and also rain water protection. The water from the bridge will do some harm to it, so we are discussing guttering to redirect the water from the face of the wall. But the budget doesn't cover this, so we HOPE that now the community has seen the mural, they'll step up to help us protect it.


As soon as the crowdfunder is live, we'll be launching it here.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
