Graffiti, London Street Art


Graffiti, London Street Art, originally uploaded by Flibber.

Saturday morning i had to go to Borrough Market to pick up some pork for the sunday roast i'd planned to cook. So i decided to take the opportunity to take some Photos as well. This is one of 3 Hundread, believe it or not, photos i took that day. I spent an hour or two walking around the market and then decided to walk back to Carlos's, to drop the pork off, via the South Bank. This is where i encountered the artist above working on a piece for the Tate modern's street art Initiative. The link above can provide more details, but its essentially part of a walking tour.

Given the topical nature of graffiti in recent news i decided to take my brothers advice and seek out the recent work by Banksy. I didn't know where it was so i used by mobile to look up the address, isn't technology usefull, and found a map to Leake street. http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Leake+st+waterloo&sll=51.499019,-0.11379&sspn=0.007921,0.017359&ie=UTF8&ll=51.501196,-0.114026&spn=0.007921,0.017359&t=h&z=16&iwloc=addr

I haven't sorted through all the photos yet, this is where i took 200+, but like this one i have a couple of panoramic shots to create.

All in all a productive weekend.

Once again another Nike website launched. It's late so wont be writing much, but basically i love everything about this site. Ok so there's room for improvement, as there always is at 2pm, but i'm excited about what we've managed to do this last couple of weeks.

So to my list of achievements on the Nike front. I can now add nikefootball to; runtrack, nikerunning, nikewomen and nikespeed.

Went to a picnic in HydePark the other week to celebrate a friends birthday. Amongst other things, such as playing croquet, boules and Frisbe, there was a french band playing. So i took the opportunity to take some photos (now on flickr).

Pan's Labyrinth

Watched pan's labyrinth the other night, having wanted to see it for a fair while, and i totally loved it. It wasn't what i'd expected but it certainly didn't dissapoint drawing you into a story of a child's fairy tale imagination and the harsh reality of growing up whilst living in post war anarchy. I was shocked on several occasions by the violence but it really only added to the story being told. I couldn't decide if the fairy tale element was supposed to be real or all in the girls mind, i like to believe it was real, but them i'm a fantasist at heart.
Overall this is a great film to watch, very violent in some parts. I've read a couple of reviews about parents taking there children to see it with mixed responses. Whatch it first before you choose to let children (12+) watch it.

Parma Ham Bonus


Parma Ham Bonus, originally uploaded by Flibber.

Occasionaly in our daily mundane lives of work, home and play something out of the ordinary happens and this is one such moment. A colleague at work receives this rather nice Param Ham as a nice little extra bonus for work well done. You wouldn't be surprised to receive this if you worked in a butchers, but in an internet company?

Anyway it was nice, if not a little salty. (wheres the swede when you need him)
