The Ghouls are coming
Sleep
Having just recently rewatched They Live. I thought I would draw my own ghoul from the film. Those sunglasses really do expose what lies beneath the surface of society. This film is even more relevant now than it was in the 80s.

Battle of Waterloo
The Battle of Waterloo 2015 down the graffiti tunnel on the London South Bank
British Transport Police vs Neboe
I went down to check out The Battle of Waterloo at Leake Street Graffiti tunnel near London's South Bank. Lots of tight stylish writers and energetic street art was on show, presented by the paint shop Chrome & Black.
About 40 artists took part in The Battle, which filled the tunnel with a cloud of sweet smelling spray paint mixed with barbecued jerk chicken, being sold to hungry punters. DJ's pumped out some hefty beats making the party bounce. Even the British Transport Police made an appearance. It looked like they were being taught how to hold a spray can, by one of the artists.
Slam was the overall winner of the £250 prize money, Diet came second and Debug came third.

Time Slip Experience at Dennis Severs House

Goodbye Cilla we had a lorra lorra laughs
Cheers Cilla
Sad news that Cilla Black has died. A Liverpool legend.
Here is my memory of her a few years ago when she came out of Bungalow 8 night club. All the photographers sang the theme tune to Blind Date all the way to her car. As Cilla got in her car she turned around and did a "Cheers" with a flower she held in her hand.
Cilla has a chuckle as all the photographers sing the Blind Date theme tune to her leaving Bungalow 8
