So what do you reckon.

The Hernia mob? The two ton gang? The do your back in mob?

Maybe it was the art liberation front out to free art for the masses.

The campaign for public decency in sculptures.

I hate to think what Henry Moore saw when he looked at a woman, can't decide whether to respect his imagination or feel sorry for him.

Bronze meltdown.

Who the hell needs that much bronze? Perhaps some sore artist.

Well, that's more aesthetic than the one that was stolen. Or were you just being sarky about that?!

I confess. Me and the lads went round there with the white van and liberated it. It's now free and romping in the wild along with Damien Hurst's half-sheep, with the breeze blowing through it's holes. A good day's work.....
