I rather hope they never decide to clean this one off - it has been there very many years now.

(It's over the M25 motorway, for those unfamiliar with it).

It got painted over in 2018. But has now been repainted again.

Done by a cereal offender?

Let’s say you’re in school, and your popularity level was based on what Cheerio you are. So there’s Extra-Frosty cheerios as the most popular kids, the frosted cheerios were the popular kids, the Regular Cheerios as the typical normal kid, then there’s the honey nut Cheerios as the nerds and geeks, and then there’s your cheerio which is the Chocolate Cheerios.

 

Now you want to ask this girl out who’s an extra frosty, you go up to her and ask her to the end of term party, but she declines. So after school gets out, you go home and rewind. The next day you wake up feeling like a honey nut cheerio, so you go up to her again and ask her again, she still says no. So you go home and rewind again and wake up the next morning feeling like a Regular cheerio. So you go to school and ask her again, she still declines. So you go home and rewind again. The next morning, you wake up feeling like a frosty cheerio. So you go up to her and ask again, still says no. Then you go home and unwind. The next day you wake up feeling like an extra frosty cheerio. Feeling doubtful, you go up to her one last time and ask her. She finally says yes. The next day is party-day, and you and your date are on the dance floor, when she says she wants a glass of punch. So she tells you that she’s going to go get some. She goes and gets it and is back in 30 seconds.

 

You ask her why she was so fast.

 

She replies with; “Oh there's no punch line.”

Well, that's two minutes of my life which I'll never get back.

If that photo was taken from further back you could see the @cereal tiller, not just the cereal roof ...

How much further back....Norton Junction or even further?

 

Apologies, I was way too slow ....

We've got a collection of boaters graffiti photos somewhere,  unfortunately not on this phone. 

Our favourite is fading fast now, in big letters across an old bridge on the tidal Trent;

FU*K  HITLER WITH JON MAGORS HEAD 

and underneath in smaller letters;  This has fu*ked me.  (which I'm sure it did) 

Another classic is in Rotherham,  under a bridge but not on the towpath side. Simple but effective,  a painting of a stick man with the words; FORGET OXFAM,  FEED BRUCE.
