Mick's Monopoly challenge

  THE ART OF BANKSY, CHARING CROSS ROAD      It may seem a tad moronic (or should that be oxymoronic) to pay £19.50 to see indoor street art. But this is rather well done. As well as lots of thought-provoking and witty exhibits  there's also interesting and well-presented backstories. And my ticket from travelzoo.com was only £9. And it's across the street from Wetherspoons' Montagu Pyke .      "A regular 400ml can of paint will give you up to 50 A4 sized stencils. This means you can become incredibly famous/unpopular in a small town virtually overnight for approximately ten pounds."

Since then, Transport for London have announced they will change the colours and names of some of the lines; ho hum.      I'm hoping come November my US Presidents puzzle will not be out of date. So that's another reason for our American cousins to 'Vote Blue'.         ..... like the CIA I'm have trouble finding all the pieces of JFK's head....
