It's not a Banksy
it's a diversion sign
put there by the road crew
because that's what the road crew do.

Now what?
a portaloo at Waterloo
Napoleon on the throne
the Queen is in the stables
and Charlie's on the phone.

I miss the chicken shack
the giant in the beanie hat
the woodentops and postman pat,
I really miss that chit and chat
with the giant in the beanie hat
eating chicken in the chicken shack
not that much the woodentops or
postman pat
which surprises me no end.
people are only forgotten when you don't remember them, Grant Burford, the social engineer, a friend to so many will not be forgotten.
