Dogs Full Of Money

We were going to save this one for Random Graffiti of the Week, but it’s just too delicious to sit on. Walking around Shoreditch over the weekend, we kept spying these odd little stickers plastered with a regularity beaten only by those sodding onlyjoe labels. …

Random Graffito of the Week

Just a little bit of juvenile bus stop humour for you. It is Friday, after all. Photo taken by M@ in the Old Street area.

Random Graffiti of the Week

This cute but sad sticker can be found ALL over town. We’re not quite sure who’s behind it, but this has been one of our favourites for some time. So we were delighted to chance across a whole row of the little fellows yesterday, on …

4413_Dscreet

Random Graffiti Of The Week

This nice pair of hooters were recently spotted in, where else, Shoreditch. And we’re not the only ones who have been snapping the raptors. The artist, DScreet, has his own, rather less eyecatching, MySpace site, complete with Whitesnake soundtrack.

Random Graffito Of The Week

This space has been left for you to leave a rabbit or 2. or bear. FOR YOU No, us neither. We found this one pinned to the railings opposite the Science Musuem a couple of weeks ago. But, as far as we could tell, no …

Extra, Extra

In case you missed it earlier: The Met have pleaded not guilty to health and safety charges relating to the shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes. It’s a ‘test case’ apparently. Police patrols at churches and mosques in London have been stepped up following the …

Random Graffito Of The Week

Spotted (in two senses) on the corner of Cromwell Road and Queen’s Gate (i.e. outside that cultural megosaur, the Natural History Museum). A quick Flickr search reveals that this is not the only one. Since mid-August, similar posters have been appearing all over the place. …

Random Graffiti Of The Week

Something a little different this week. Here’s how serial stenciler Banksy went about hijacking the new album by exceptionally talented genius-about-town drink-driving airhead Paris Hilton. Watch him doctor the packaging then secrete 500 copies in stores across London and the UK like some latter-day Willy …

Quonah, If You’re Reading This…

Reader ‘James B’ spotted this pleading note pasted to the side of a builder’s portaloo (classy) in Bewdley Street, Islington. We’d love to know how this turns out. We’d also like to speak to a well-known Tory politician, and a former presenter of A Question …

4215_StarbucksScream

Random Graffito Of The Week

OK, so it’s not that big, nor that clever, but it is topical. We chanced across this Munch-ified Starbucks sticker down Lamb’s Conduit Street last night, opposite a newly opened branch of the megachain. A particularly timely intervention, given that the half-inched Scream was finally …

Random Graffiti Of The Week

The imminent Carnival reminded us that we don’t get to explore the streets of west London as often as we’d like. One person who certainly does, though, is Zef. The walls of Ladbroke Grove are festooned with his stencilwork, particularly the gun logo, shown on …
