If you ever wondered who did all this .....

Hang up your Chisels and Plane blades and take a load off with a recently turned goblet of your favourite poison, in the lounge of our Gentlemen's (and ladies) Club.

If you ever wondered who did all this .....

and by this I mean the Stars and Stripes/ red/blue stuff

then it is a guy from our village ! He and his business partner have a bit of a name for themselves for when it comes to this sort of stuff that needs doing by hand. They get the VIP treatment while they are there. Took 35 days. Booked into a swish house...pool ...the biz. All expenses paid PLUS a VIP pass for the actual Grand Prix.

A lot of their other stuff is equally as good if not better.
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.

What would you have done differently Mike ? I can't imagine it'd be the easiest canvas to paint on. I think it looks impressive !

I wouldn't have done it at all. Painted ground looks like painted ground, however well it is done. It's garish and distracting.

You think that's bad you should see what my late uncle convinced my mum to do... Paint the concrete path and kerbs outside with a horrible looking grey masonry paint. It started peeling after a few months and looks even worse now
