The Writing Is On The Wall.

Oh, I love reading graffiti! I’m talking about the illicit writing on walls and doors of public places; not talking about the modern commercialized painting of walls. To me that is another art form.

I will not leave a town without a visit to the railway station, a few bus halts and public toilets to read the graffiti.

Many years ago I was on the red carpet for the graffiti on the back of the door in the ladies’ toilet. Unknown to me that was part of my responsibilities. When I investigated I found some of the filthiest writings I saw in my life. I had the door painted and had a sign put up. It said: PLEASE DO NOT WRITE ON THE DOORS AND WALLS.

When I inspected the place two weeks later I was very surprised to find an addition my my poster.

It read: DO YOU EXPECT US TO TYPE ON IT.

I was instantly hooked to graffiti.

Do you know some funny writings on the wall?

And in honour of a great man who had fallen
May he rest in peace

This song had always reminded me of him. The reasons becomes evident in the 2nd verse.

Nelson Mandela will be remembered as the greatest Statesman the World has ever know.

A fitting tribute to one man who fought against apartheid under extenuating circumstances. God rest his weary soul.sad flower

Good afternoon from Norway Catfoot. Not much graffiti on the walls where I live, but we too have had our share. The kids who made them was turn in and got a ticket for it... so it ended their graffiti writing. I'm sorry for the dead of a great man, but he was an old man and I'm sure he is much better off were he is now.
Have a blessed weekend.hug bouquet teddybear
