Data?

Not another one, please can admin intercede and stop multiple threads on basically the same thing.

It is only the same thing as some people only want to talk about the same things. There are many important issues here - some people might want to have a say. Why not just ignore if you have nothing new to add?

Or of course dbboy and HopOne you can both get stuffed.

Taxidermy's the way to go I reckon, if it's OK with everyone I'd like to be posed on the Goose Green roundabout in a 'Rodinesque' attitude - I'll leave it up to the EDF to decide how I'm posed.

Though solo, I'm thinking The Thinker.

Not because of course I am any great one, I just like its looks.

There's a few I'd like to be webbed up with as The Kiss, but I'll keep that to myself.

Not a Thinker but discreet, I like to think.

This is a completely separate discussion to all the other overlapping threads. Or was.

ETA: Spelling police here. It's not inter-seed!

[dbboy]

duly corrected - intercede

That's a great idea Hona, although I see you more as a grown up version of Le Petit Pissoir...a sort of roundabout feature fountain.

We can't risk more Hepworth thievery, so foregoing bronze, perhaps we can melt down all the coins that everyone has been collecting in the 365 Day Penny Challenge.

I have an artistic bent, when shall I come round and measure you up?...

My friend's sister was buried in a natural woodland area, no coffins, wrapped in a sheet I think with a tree planted in her name nearby. Sounds a lovely place to visit

It would have to be renamed/Anglicised as the Big Piss Artist but you may be on to something here RD, I'm of to the pub to cogitate.
