As I Was On My Way To---
Barnet in Hertfordshire undoubtedly has one of the best local summer park events near London. Oakhill Park is transformed from a very well equiped family park to an enviable amusement park and open air concert arena. Barnet4u.co.uk Concert

And so some night Christians decide to chat to a semi drunk clubber who's decided to stop off enroute to Burger King for a short slur session. Vivid yellow mansize plaquards emblazoned with the same John scripture have come to typify this bustling spot outside the Empire cinema, Leicester Square. Just like in the movies, where there's good, evil follows. Behind the manic street preachers lay steps leading down towards the very pits of hell. The horrendous nature of the public toilets test your true state of desparation to answer nature's call. A cleaner option would be a restaurant or even a pseudo-restaurant like Burger King, believe it or not!
And, for any sane human beings lingering home after a late day... AT ALL COSTS, AVOID TAKING AN N20 OR 29/N29 NIGHT BUS. You have been warned, for the boundless grief in seeing Londoner's at their most degenerate spew-shouting-stink-swearing-spit-stealing-insobriety-states is enough to vapourise holy water and make monks yell!
When it comes to advertisements on a poster or billboard, bigger isn't necessarily better as most of them are rehashed, lame or trash. But this one, this one for a new UK TV programme, is just ingenious. Okay, so the programe's a rehash, but but that's besides the point. Dare I say, I even got confused with the 3D perspective of it, and momentarily thought the men were stuck on figures. Perhaps the most marvellous marketing magic is that the advert's actually torn and tattered at the bottom. Just look at that.
And the true magic's all in the attention to detail as even the grey wall colour behind Richie's only exposed hand matches the real wall colour behind the poster. Boy it looks like those two comedians are going to fall off the page! Sweet. All the more perilous for hanging over London Underground tracks.
I know, the original Minder was not a comedy show and these guys aren't comedians... that is unless Shane Richie said he was an actor. :0)
