Dreaming Girl, St. Helen's, England
Halfway between Liverpool and Manchester, the 20-metre high face of a sleeping girl towers above the busy M62 highway. With her eyes closed and serene expression, ‘Dream’ appears to be lost in a deep reverie.

@tsarstepan,

They cut out the Middleman!

Now, instead of toking up and then attacking the cabinets looking for chips and vanilla wafers, we will just crunch through a bag of cannibis corn...... .

"Hey, let's get some fat guys to rap while wearing clown make-up."

For me, it doesn't have the same ring as when Annette Funicello would say "Hey, I know gang, we could put on a show!!"
