Mick Ronson Memorial Garden, East Park, Hull



Lovely to see that he's remembered in his home town of Hull. This memorial is in East Park. We can remember him with David Bowie and the Spiders from Mars in our younger days. Although we have seen David Bowie many times it was without Mick Ronson. Peter Frampton was his guitarist last time we saw him and that was about 30 years ago !!
Hope you are both jamming in heaven xx

Preston Road Graffiti, Hull

Spent a fantastic morning looking at the graffiti on the derelict houses on Preston Road, Hull. The council donated the houses to Bankside Gallery whose artists sprayed 22 houses, although more have now been decorated. The houses will eventually be demolished. We can highly recommend a visit to see this outstanding work, such talent. There was a large crowd there today, lots of press photographers, a vicar speaking about poverty, a few artists spraying new houses and a large crowd of folk amazed at the fantastic artwork. 

The first house was dedicated to Libby Squire. 



The Bee House was one of our favourites this year.  We think it must have been painted by the same person that did the Owl House last year (which was also our favourite last year!).
