Mortar Rats, by mido on Feb 12, 2007 20:18:02 GMT 1, what a load of rubbish.
as I'm sure you realise they are both on the riverside granite blocks, so are on the same line. If you look at either, you see the houses of parliament behind.
2 and 2 still equals 4 I believe.

Mortar Rats, by andrewd on Feb 14, 2007 0:04:15 GMT 1, Martin you are absolutely right, what intrigues me as I jog along there heading into town is it's obvious what they are both 'aimed at' but as Corblimeylimey says the angle of the barrel is wrong on the one furthest east and if the stencil had have been turned the other way round they would have both been aimed at Parliament. Not wanting to split hairs or talk nonsense, though what gets me every time I see them is how bl***y brilliant they are!
