Translation: It's been shit weather with no action down the alley hence the retro shots ;-)
No action down the alley but a bit of action at Hotel Constabulary. One of the boys got busted tagging (I don't support tagging but his are kinda styley) and spent a few nights enjoying the hospitality of his minimalist hosts. He's been charged with 5 or 6 counts of some kind of wilful damage I hear.
He's the second artist/writer to get taken down in almost as many weeks. His bad habits merely caught up with him but the other one, of no crew known, was just bad luck - he's only been up a few times and his naive colourful characters have been a pleasure to have in the hood.
"When explaining yourself to the Police it's worth being as reasonable as possible. Graffiti writers are not real villains. Real villains consider the idea of breaking in someplace, not stealing anything and then leaving behind a painting of your name in four feet high letters the most retarded thing they ever heard of."
