Bed and board

14 February 2015

Given that the board is a door, this is a complete flatpack bed and breakfast. Two reservations; firstly, that the establishment looks a bit shabby and secondly, there's no breakfast.

Havelock Road, Luton

Nice set of pins

14 February 2015

The photographer reports crouching down for ages trying to get a decent shot (it doesn't show) and loudly singing the Television Personalities song "14th Floor". Not realising he was being observed by a man having a cigarette about twenty feet away.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Happy ornament

14 February 2015

As sinister a reminder of the late 1980s aceed craze as you could hope for.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Luton jellyfish

14 February 2015

Looks like a yellow jelly shirt, but of course, isn't. Life is hard for the Luton jelly fish, which has to reconcile its normal way of life with inhabiting one of the most landlocked parts of the country.

Orange hair care

14 February 2015

A companion piece to the last posting. Orange hair brushed.

Charles Street, Luton

Afro hair care

14 February 2015

One of those big combs for Afro haircuts. Looks a little forlorn.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Fancy engineering

14 February 2015

This reminds me of this. I am sure there are other far less innocent things it'll remind others of.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Word on the street

14 February 2015

And it's £5.90.

Harry Lime

9 February 2015

There have been some great fictional Harrys. We all know Harry Lime, Harry Palmer and of course, Luton Town mascot Happy Harry. Any others?

Hitchin Road, Luton

The Big Bang?

14 February 2015

Hey quantum physicists, here's one. This is how the universe may have looked just as the Big Bang got going. Modelled in rice.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Unhinged

This may, of course, not be a hinge. Rotate 90 degrees anti-clockwise and you may have Professor Yaffle's talons.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Earbuds

6 February 2015

These are the sorts of earbuds which carry sounds in rather than dig gunk out of the ol' lugholes.

Brook Street, Luton

Lone trainer

8 February 2014

A 'one of a pair' always tells a story. I'm not sure why this particular piece of footwear was discarded. I wear tattier as best.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Sticking around

7 February 2015

This looks like a lost snake, having a rest on a street sign. Unless my eyes are REALLY deceiving me.

Charles Street, Luton

Dinner time

6 February 2015

Dinner time? Do you know, I'm suddenly not that hungry.

Burr Street, Luton

Word on the street

1 February 2015

Word on the street is "please can you place parcel in garage". This could be, but is likely no, some kind of code.

Charles Street, Luton

Road trip

31 January 2015

Yes, some liberty has been taken here with the colours. There's a magic button on some app or something which does this. This is oil and Luton's answer to this sort of thing.

Concorde Street, Luton

Iraqi super gun?

31 January 2014

I don't think this has anything to do with any guns, "super", "Iraqi" or anything else. No. I'm playing a dangerous game, trying to bring in a few more viewers through luring in special forces and whatnot. The object itself is a spacing tool for spaghetti.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Word on the street

31 January 2015

And the word is "Luton".

Hitchin Road, Luton

Blue wire

31 January 2015

A tiny coil of blue wire. Possible uses include telephony or lead for a tiny dog.

Hitchin Road, Luton

Bread sculpture

23 January 2015

And so, in Luton's proud civic centre. A bread sculpture, depicting the town's proud history, through the medium of Warburton's.

St George's Square, Luton

Rauchen verboten everywhere

23 January 2015

Is this what is to come? Rauchen verboten everywhere. A three word sentence which reminds me of this excellent album.
