Local boy on the plinth

August 23rd, 2009 · Posted by Skuds in Life · No Comments · Life

I was browsing through the One & Other web site today, looking for the video of the bloke who did a Tony Hancock impersonation.  I didn’t find him, but I did find ‘bobnoxious‘ who looked very familiar…  it is indeed a keen cyclist and photographer from Crawley.  Never met him, but he is one of my contacts on Flickr so as far as I am concerned he is the second person that I ‘know’ who has been selected to go on the 4th plinth.

A bit of a mixed bag: he gave a short lecture about banking, read some poems, including ‘Twat’ by John Cooper Clarke, played some music, threw bundles of £20 notes down, danced, dressed up as a (extremely well-hung) Gormley Another Place statue and then as the Angel of the North.  All very entertaining.  Crawley council should encourage him to repeat the performance in the town centre.
