7751. M32 Cycle path (312)

With a playful variation on one of John D’oh’s sayings, this piece reminds us that ‘life is like ice cream, enjoy it before it melts away’. Advice I have not always been very good at heeding, spending too much of my time dwelling in the past or the future, and forgetting to enjoy the moment.

In this great column stencil piece, we see a youth in a hoodie enjoying a ’99’ while a gull above plans its angle of attach. This is a rather more accurate street scene than many might believe. Gulls (although many species are protected under law), can be a real pest, and frequently raid holidaymakers’ ice creams or fish and chips while wandering along a promenade. Fun stuff from John D’oh.
