get with it AP, street art ( I feckin hate that term BTW ) has to have AK47/ Ronald Mc Donald/ tescos logo / hand grenade used ironically to be a hit.Its all about the clever and original juxtaposition of globalism and war and death and shit innit.


get back to grass roots and get tagging bus windows and blacking out teeth on grinning tube averts.or maybe speech bubbles with bad words crudely drawn on posters.and styalised genitalia.Ole Skool for impact.Retro is the way forward.


keep it real on the mean streets of SE22.

Peckhamgatecrasher, apologies for not replying sooner, the Herrods* pud is in no way a reference to any heinous act of cowardly terrorism, being a pacifist I don't condone any act of violence or hatred to anyone or anything... apart from Daleks maybe.


Herrods* is a place of pilgrimage during the seasonal festive binge for the discerning aerosol afficionado. Specialising in inappropriate last minute artistic gifts, primarily for yourself, but maybe someone else.

*not to be confused with any mini mart in Knightsbridge with a similar name (this a serious contemptorary art gallery questioning mass consumption, please buy our stuff)

It's full of naive charm and spunky gusto, like a lot of Fine Art degree shows. Slade? Chelsea? South Bank Poly Uni maybe? A career in local council leaflet design awaits.


Worth a Desmond.

Does his Mother know he does this stuff ?


I bet she's completely unaware of the 'talent' that hides in the head of her boy


"He was fine until his Father upped and left us" she tells the neighbours


"Then 'efore you know it he's listing to hippity hop and messin about with words an' the like"

When we were 19 we did a deeply ironic radio show on uni radio. In second year we had to progress so made it a post ironic take on an ironic radio show. Then we realised the irony of a post-ironic take on an ironic radio show.


We had become knobs. Disappearing ever so slowly up our own rectums.

I've decided I'm going to run this in Nunhead Cemetery next summer:


"Edgy, anti-consumptive street art by Men with Beards"


Edgy anti-consumption street art by men with beards is a simplistic but post-ironic take on the ironic juxtapositions found in the urban hipster art movement of the early 2010's. It examines the tat consumption generated from the middle class movements anti-consumptive message before the main protagonists disappeared up a giant rectal passageway.


As part of the attraction there will be an interactive "bouncy sphincter" for both children and adults alongside a giant life sized rat with a machine gun. Mulled wine and prosecco will be served.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
