How do you get traffic to it? It offers a nice unique spin on things. I guess having something authentic or substantial to say is the most important thing.

He should by now have factored in the temptation to vandalise which so affects British Urban Youth. So many of his outdoor projects...rolling bridge, blue carpet, B of the Bang have proved irresistible to scallies who couldn't create a boiled egg without help.

Passing the site each day, I can't say I'm suprised, the site has been very slowly and very sparcely attended to. The information officer at the hospital Trust had no idea when the damaged sections would be fixed....
