Brilliant! Well done for that - hopefully you will have helped to open the eyes of a few people.

I noticed that the link on their site to your blog doesn't work - is there any way you can get them to fix it?

[dibnah]

yes just noticed that, thanks, I'll give them a call.

Good stuff Dibnah! I see you live in Scunthorpe (I just wanted to write that because this is the only forum I know that doesn't censor out the middle of the word!!).

[dibnah]

Nicely done!

Here's hopng for a few more ish people coming from your direction!

I saw a bit of graffiti once, reported in a book. "If Typhoo put the T in Britain, who put the you-know-what in Scunthorpe" and have never been able to see that name in print without thinking of the graffiti

Nice article, lets hope your artwork gets famous too

[dibnah]

thanks everyone

That's heaps good Dibnah. Just checked out your blog too, and the guerilla gardening article is a pearler!

I see it as part of my artwork 'enviromental interactions' but with a positive sustainable ellement rather than graffitii which is permanent and unchanging. Anyway thats another story.

Sadly the article has only had one person from Scunthorpe contact me through it it's not a good sign perhaps scunny is still in the dark ages.

The first time that I was in the local rag in Bath no-one contacted me, they did not when we were in the local rag in Northampton either. DOn't knock it mate 1 is not bad, at least you got through to someone.

The worst one was when I did a sponsored walk for the 'free tibet campaign' which was in the paper and nobody got in touch, I felt like it was a waste of time and very foolish.

I'm older'ish now and don't let it bother me

I just thought I should have been wearing a self-sufficient'ish T-shirt!!
