What Music are you listening to at the moment ?, by tobomoore on Nov 2, 2017 13:59:05 GMT 1, It so is..... entered UK album charts at number 2 a couple of weeks ago. Came back to the UK and went to see Numan at Brixton and the gig was amazing.... Have three gigs in the diary when he heads back to the States and forked out on a box at my home city of Chicago.... the man just gets better with age! Anyone who likes industrial dark music will love it! Yorkie Saw him in Southend - best Numan gig since the three forum gigs

POW CLOSING DOWN - SALE ENDS 31ST DECEMBER 2017, by tobomoore on Oct 23, 2017 9:18:10 GMT 1, the soupcans keep getting referred to as "unlimited" but they are not. They were originally sold as unlimited back in 2006, but then taken off the site. So however many were sold to that point was the limit. Then a few hundred more were found for this sale and now they have gone, so again the limit has been reached. If they were unlimited we would all have one. So unless POW are now printing a fresh batch, which I doubt, then this poster has now reached its limit.

POW CLOSING DOWN - SALE ENDS 31ST DECEMBER 2017, by tobomoore on Oct 13, 2017 11:34:17 GMT 1, It's just a poster... but an official Banksy one, from source, so you know it's not a fake. You won't get a COA for these and they're not signed or numbered. Nice! Looking forward to seeing it in person then. Any advice on framing? Cheap and cheerful or would you guys go to town on it? I dont understand why people are bidding ยฃ's of pounds for a ยฃ10 poster? I know it's Banksy but c'mon! I'm wondering what makes this any different to the "Box Set" that people are willing to pay over a ยฃ1000 for and which is tiny, and doesn't have the word Banksy anywhere on it, and is effectively a little poster.
The box set is unlimited, whereas this isn't now, as, when POW closes, that's it. Ok, its got a cheap frame and lump of concrete, but surely the soupcans is more iconic and wall friendly. I'm guessing that's why people want it and are willing to pay ยฃยฃยฃs for it

Banksy, Walled Off Hotel, GIFT SHOP, by tobomoore on Sept 7, 2017 16:49:26 GMT 1, I got an email today from Walled off to say they are reducing cost of the rooms and suites by 50% This shows to me that they need cash The hotel has now been in operation for longer than was initially expected and it's hardly a run of the mill hotel that will attract run of the mill Bethlehem tourists so it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that it does need an influx of visitors hence cash.
It's an expensive trip even if using Easyjet etc and most fans of Banksy who could afford it have probably visited by now, so additional marketing / incentives have been employed to possibly entice those thinking about it, makes good business sense to me.
maybe good business sense, but for those of us that have already been its a bit of a kick in the teeth. The visit was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had, so a souvenir of some sort would be great eg the key fob. And yes I mean a souvenir. No way I would want to sell it on.
All that was available when I was there were a couple of t-shirts and pens (which I bought).
Really think this should have been opened to past visitors as well as new.

, by tobomoore on Jun 21, 2017 20:53:17 GMT 1, Thank you for all the answers to previous questions, but still confused about what to say/not to say on entry. I am travelling with my friend, both guys in our 50s, and have only booked rooms at The Walled-off. So have transfer straight from airport to there. Email correspondence from hotel says not to take printed copy of reservation in luggage. So if asked where we are staying, what do we say, and what do we do if they ask to see a copy of the reservation? This is the only part of this trip that is worrying me (going Saturday). As before, all advice/experiences welcome.

Sorry for so many questions. Bit of an adventure into the unknown for me.

, by tobomoore on Jun 14, 2017 18:04:41 GMT 1, Hi. I'm going to the Walled Off end of next week and would be grateful for some advice from those who have already visited. We are there for three days and only staying at Walled off. obviously I'm concerned what to say when going through Ben Gurien airport. Any advice?
I received an email from East Wind Tourz re the transfer we booked which offered โassistanceโ at the airport for $50 inbound and $65 departure. Anybody use this and is it a good idea to have? would it save a lot of hassle at the airport? Why is it more for departure? Is there greater hassle on leaving?
Also they are offering tours, but we booked tours when booking the hotel. What do the hotel tours encompass? Is it just Bethlehem, or is Jerusalem included?
Any other advice for the trip would be gratefully received.
Thank you

, by tobomoore on Mar 22, 2017 12:44:12 GMT 1, Bethlehem is a touch more difficult and complex to get to them Dismaland was When I went through Jordan into Israel some years ago me and my wife were interviewed in separate rooms... All worked out fine, but was a surreal experience... This is my reservation letter for the hotel: This letter constitutes official confirmation of your reservation. We would, however, discourage you from printing it out and carrying it on your person when transiting through Tel Aviv airport. Security and immigration officials at the airport seek to discourage people from visiting the West Bank and may pull you aside for extra questioning if aware of your final destination. It is, of course, perfectly safe and legal to visit the occupied territories - you are doing nothing wrong. But many feel such an inconvenience is not the ideal way to start their holiday. Consequently, if questioned most travellers choose to only talk about the beach or holy sites that they intend to visit. Is that a confirmation from the hotel? I received a confirmation of booking from SeeTickets, but not from the hotel direct

, by tobomoore on Mar 12, 2017 11:58:32 GMT 1, With many of us now having booked the hotel, I would think many, like me, have never travelled to that part of the world.
I thought it would therefore be useful to have a thread for people to post tips and advice e.g. What to say/do at passport control in Tel Aviv, what to see when there, good places to eat, locations of other Banksys, what currency to take, prices, etc etc.
Would be really useful for people like myself.

Any idea what the tour is? So excited I've emailed them about this. I assumed booking the $60 option meant top & bottom bunk. I'll let you know when I hear back Thanks! ๐
