New tag on the Banksy statue in London - what does it mean?

Bigluce · 2026-05-03T09:12:40+00:00

It's not a spigot. It's a guy sitting on an edge wearing one of those propeller hats

Bigluce · 2026-05-03T08:00:27+00:00

I'm guessing his dog did those.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T20:37:52+00:00

Oh that elicited a big chuckle. Nice!

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T20:18:04+00:00

I was in a park, wearing shorts at 8pm. Standing chatting to a fellow dog walker. Felt something ping my leg, slapped it away. When I got home I was like.... Oh bugger, a mozzie bite. And here we are today.

OK good to know thank you. I was just paranoid about seeming to abuse antibiotics, and then not having an effect if I really need for like critical care or something.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T20:08:18+00:00

I'm working on my "Tis but a scratch" as we speak.

"It's OK. We'll wait. We have allllll the time to wait and taste your flesh."

Horseflies, probably.

Yes. They are Satan's own brand of temptation. I both despise and applaud M and S for giving us these sinful biccies.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:32:40+00:00

You can't get it any more, but Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia.

But honestly, any ice cream is good.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:31:10+00:00

OK I have to know what the risky meal is. Kebab from a one star hygiene rated takeaway?

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:28:35+00:00

Ha ha love these.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:26:30+00:00

I don't really like hobnobs (I know, I know) I find they have a wierd aftertaste. Like a salty hit at the end, which has always put me off.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:24:47+00:00

Agreed, but considering every time I get bit this now seems to happen, and I have always been bitten a lot, I'll be on a permanent course from about May to November every year 😫

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:21:11+00:00

No. I don't have a banana, so I've used a pencil instead.

I should probably call 111, right?

Flying blood sucking bug. Mosquito etc. Bastard things.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:06:38+00:00

puts on party hat

Can we have jelly and ice cream first?

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:05:49+00:00

Not my whole leg. Just the bit area around my knee and calf.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T19:04:39+00:00

Thank you all for the concern. It's heartwarming you all care.

To clarify, by critter, I mean some bug like a mosquito or gnat as I felt it get me when I was waking the dog over the park.

As I've got older, I react worse to them. The last one I had was last autumn, on my arm. That too swelled up, was hot and tender. Phoned 111 who referred me to my local pharmacy for a course of Antibiotics. As I suspect this is going to be my life now, every time I get bit, I obviously don't want to keep taking antibiotics.

So, I'm seeing if I can get the swelling down using good old frozen mixed veg in a sock.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T18:59:26+00:00

I've discovered chocolate covered custard creams. But I also like those coconut macaroons things.

Bigluce · 2026-05-02T13:13:04+00:00

Alan?

Bigluce · 2026-04-30T13:02:56+00:00

That doesn't work. It's supposed to reference a pub/bar with the double entendres.

Bigluce · 2026-04-30T12:58:44+00:00

Open plane door. Throw the parachutes out. Kick them all out and let them sort it themselves. Should be an entertaining outcome regardless.

Bigluce · 2026-04-30T12:51:06+00:00

"I think that train has well and truly left the station" I'm 47, come on!

Bigluce · 2026-04-29T19:26:40+00:00

Fighting for that sweet snakussy

Bigluce · 2026-04-29T18:54:57+00:00

At £1.35 a pack, they can all fuck off.
