Something far to big for me to take a photo of.

i remember seein boards around building sites being painted in the 80s the first time I went to London on a graff-tip but its something I never really thought about til now. I suppose the boards are all legals yeah? That's a good idea...why have I never thought of that before? Maybe I did an just can't remember in my old age....

Anyway, who did u ask? Just see the gaffer on the site or something? Are they usually sweet about paintin them? Might have a go at this myself and get my lazy arse in gear.

(still not managed to get them flix scanned on yet)

im not too sure about the boards mate. the work going on in plymouth city centre is all stuff done by the city council so i assume that they are involved in some way or another. the central bus depot has all been painted ( i'll put some flix up of that soon) and that was organised by a local lifestyle/music listing magazine along with the city council. i assume that it all depends on the cities attitude to graff. plymouth likes to see itself as a 'cool street culture city' (not that this is a good thing) what with the increase in the student population moving down there, so the council seem pretty cool about promoting legal graffiti. i don't know what the attitude towards it is in different cities is though.

We got the ok from the council to paint the boards, who then gave us £1000 of paint to get it started!!
