Guided Tour of Banksy Graffiti (& others) - Part 1, by mido on Jun 8, 2006 11:58:16 GMT 1, People may remember I offered to guide a group of interested people around some of the Banksy graffiti (and others on the way) in London.
Ok, so here's the plan for Part 1 - Old street / shoreditch / hackney rd / brick lane area
Sunday 2nd July.
Meet at Old Street Tube station (Northern Line). 2pm sharp.
that lets people from a far to get there and back and lets people get their own lunch before we start (trying to all go somewhere for lunch sounds like a nightmare!). Can do the old street / shoreditch / hackney rd / brick lane area probably. Then people can do whatever they want after - food, drink or transport.....
someone suggested not clashing with world cup matches [what? is there a World Cup on soon??  ] so this does not clash with any matches.
Don't worry if you cannot make it, I might do it again later and will probably do other tours as well (e.g. South Bank)

Guided Tour of Banksy Graffiti (& others) - Part 1, by mido on Jun 8, 2006 12:41:09 GMT 1, oh, if people want an idea of how long it will last....
ummm. very hard to say
I imagine we will be knackered after 3 hours of walking, with the odd stop of course.....
anyway, people can leave at any time they want. we will always be within a decent distance of Old Street, Shoreditch or Liverpool St tubes.
Any ideas / questions just ask
Martin
P.S. this is also advertised on the ebay forum site so you can all meet up and hug....
but bear in mind it also means there might be other opinions / questions as well...

Hi Seb, and welcome to the forum ;D
Martins not charging for the tour, but I think it would be nice if we all had a bit of a collection for all the work that Martin has put into finding all of the Banksy pieces around East London
Or maybe buy him a drink if we all stop off at Pub errrrr maybe thats not such a good idea  It could just end up as one big pub crawl ;D

Couple of questions:, do we have to hold hands ? and is it going to be a 'group' or a 'crocodile' ? what about crossing roads etc ?

Guided Tour of Banksy Graffiti (& others) - Part 1, by mido on Jun 13, 2006 3:14:39 GMT 1, I had thought of maybe getting into the spencer tunick business and starting off with a photo of a naked banksy tour 
on second thoughts.... maybe not..... 
God knows how it will all pan out. depends how many turn up. I can say one thing though. I am not holding a pink umbrella so you can follow me! 
maybe I'll wear some elephant ears or something....

well if you get Lucy, Clare, Suzy, Sarah and co tagging along then the naked thing might not be a bad idea..otherwise I'd drop it... Monkey mask ! that's what you need ! and a wrong war placard saying 'Wrong war' this way --- ;-)

Guided Tour of Banksy Graffiti (& others) - Part 1, by David on Jun 13, 2006 11:58:35 GMT 1, sounds like a cool idea....... dont think I could resist stopping and getting a bagel in brick lane...... then a burger at vibe.......... then a curry later......... then dance it all off at cargo. whilst checking out more work.
I have found so much in that area. might just see you all there!

Guided Tour of Banksy Graffiti (& others) - Part 1, by mido on Jun 20, 2006 15:24:26 GMT 1, flipping heck - pressure on the tour or what - transatlantic visitors.... 
I hadn't advertised it yet but I plan for it to be just OUTSIDE EXIT 1 of Old Street tube station. There is a bit of space just after the stairs of the exit, where we could meet up, under a sign for 'Smartline'. It's on the opposite side of the road from a large red bricked building ('Imperial Hall').
If it is absolutely lashing down with rain there is an alternative (undercover) space in the tube station between exits 5 & 6 (by 'Scotts Shoe Repairs').
If for any reason you miss the 2pm start I will be leading the tour (hopefully) around the area for a while and you could pick us up on the corner of Pitfield St and Old Street at maybe 2.45pm.
best wishes, martin
