talking the talk but not deliverying

on closer inspection, there are no special offers.  in fact this was outside a shop which was selling special offer signs (at full price)

no hats no boots no job

this would make a good begging sign.  worth remembering for the future perhaps.

wall-e rubbish

i was quite pleased with this photo opportunity as it shows i’m vaguely in touch with the modern world.

there’s a film in the flicks at the moment called wall-e which is about some robot that cleans up all the rubbish left behind on planet earth.

it’s such a mess that everyone has left to go an live somewhere else.

so i was delighted to see this giant pile of genuine oxford street rubbish outside the flagship disney store on oxford street.

further reductions due to public demand

080722_350d_img_7494.jpg

further reductions due to public demand.  blummin public.  always wanting stuff cheaper.  perhaps it’s no surprise this shop eventually shut down if it was just listening to its customers asking for stuff more cheaper without any regard for its own costs.

action intercepted

080619_850_img_9185-Edit.jpg

this was a parked car with a bit of a noddy photoshop working for interest.  not sure if it entirely works. i probably won’t try and recreate an actual version of it whizzing along the street.  unless i’m down a manhole

overdue

080624_850_img_9274.jpg

i took this photo at the end of the June but only just spotted it in the pending pile.  even so, if you’ve got a sign up at the end of june saying you hope the work would have finished 3 months ago then people aren’t going to be too impressed.

tourists most welcome
