some more cool stuff around the square in the town centre some shards of pots inset in perspex, oh and doug he's real..and some reproduction of text set in concrete they're all around the space i grabbed a couple of shots of the ones that amused me most.. , the ruins are what's left of a bombing during the war ... we also drove past the prison apparently where oscar wilde did a stint and wrote there too..brilliant day, we had lunch in an art space/theatre cafe and checked out a couple of exhibits, strolled around town went past the lovely book shop that so kindly got me in contact with doug on sunday, yeh for wi-fi i say and skype!!
2 hours in the stocks just for being drunken... wow! things were rough back then. my grandfather, who was from sicily, used to live in the other side of our house when i was growing up and he used to call socks... stocks. i guess he thought it was short for stockings but it used to crack me up as a kid when he'd say "put your stocks on"
