Vending Limbs and Tube Walk 32

[squirmelia]

Santa's Ghetto on Oxford Street was where Joe and I headed on Friday to gaze at the limb vending machine, graffiti, space invader mosaics, Banksy paintings and various other art scattered about the temporary gallery. We wore enough black to be able to drink in the new Intrepid Fox after that and then danced the night away at Sin City.

Saturday was Tube Walk 32 from Brent Cross to Golders Green. Camera battery uncharged, cheese melting in left luggage at King's Cross, and words, words are too slow to write while walking. Therefore, I collected bits of old carpet, Alien Autopsy, tags for dog clothes, abandoned cassette tapes and CDs, flowers, leaves, words written by other people, bark, a Wink-Ease sticker, packaging for planes, and tore down a sign that said, "find your way there."

What limbs did you get from the vending machine? :)

[squirmelia.livejournal.com]

It was mostly vending legs and no wings.

Oo, and did you see the tape man there? There's a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8KFC5yqS0o) about how he made the head :)

Oh, there were sculptures that looked as if they were made out of sellotape, so I guess that was them?

all that stuff you picked up is amazing. and all in one day?

All found between Brent Cross and Golders Green, in just an hour or two, walking between the stations. Odd that there is just so much stuff lying around in that area!

What's the new Intrepid fox like? (I haven't been down there just yet)

The walls were red, I remember that much, and the bar downstairs seemed long and seemed to fill almost the entire length of the room. I did not spend much time upstairs, but there was an upstairs.

Thanks.

At the moment I am mostly striving to rid myself of a cold and not much else, to be honest.

Actually, same here. Had it for 4-5 days so i should be nearing time for relief.
