I've have tried so hard not to reply . I didn't have to in the end!

That's great, it has hints of sites in the former E Germany from exploring years past, such as Krampnitz, Wünsdorf and Altes Lager. I've always been intrigued by Kaliningrad, I think you can visit from Finland for 72 hours without needing a visa? Wouldn't get too excited about armed guards – lots of police on the continent carry side arms.

Yeah I have done all the sites you too have visited, the GDR throws up some amazing places to visit. I shall eventually get round to uploading!!

Would that be Cricket Box Mine? Or one for ball clay? In the 1950s one could navigate around Buckfastleigh by pubs only.

Having recently spent another two weeks around the BCN I despair with the graffiti situation. There's some really talented artists and some excellent murals underneath major boring concrete structures such as M54 and Spaghetti Junction bridges. But the senseless 'tagging' on almost everything drove us mad. Beautiful ironwork bridges declaring 'Horsley Ironworks' and the like — scribbled all over. Beautiful brickwork and iconic signage — scribbled over.

good point well made

But who defines what is 'good grafitti' and what is 'bad grafitti'? As with who decides what buildings should be preserved and what demolished? There are many churches and chapels that could be demolished and the land used for modern housing, instead of concreting over farm fields. Of course, it would reduce the number of place to be explored!

I'm definitely putting huge ***** graffiti in the bad category

True. But often the senseless tagging over an iconic structure just comes across as vandalism. Here’s one of the Horseley Ironworks bridges, and one of the few canal mileage signs that hasn’t been obliterated.

Farmers Bridge lock flight is a sea of graffiti.
