Just who wants to take responsibility?

I was on one of my regular patrols the other day, camera in hand and ego set to 11 when I came across some graffiti. Near a Real Estate Agents office. I noticed that the Real Estate Agent regularly changes the photo's he displays in the window, which means by default, they must have seen this graffiti. Suffice to say, a quick call to the Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) resulted in no response. Yet again.

Is it too much to expect that the REIA calls this Real Estate Agent and ask them to remove Graffiti found some 20 metres from their shopfront? I think not.

Sure the graffiti is plastered all over a RTA sign. But come on, should I be calling the RTA about this? Madness.

Back at last

Crazy last few days here in the Inner West.

My attempts to get the locals more enthused about Graffiti, rubbish, abandoned cars, scooters and air pollution took a turn for the worst a few days ago.

It now appears the residents of the Inner West are not interested in a concert to promote awareness of Graffiti. Having spent the last few days promoting and performing in the main street, I guess this is one idea that is yet to have it's day.

Mark my words.

GRACSAP-A-LOOLA will happen. One day.

Not sure how I can break it to Steady Eddie he's not needed as MC.

The finer things in life

I am taking time reflect on all of my good deeds in the past 48 hours. 

Have I made a difference? Well, in my eyes I have. I look around me and see happy people, peering out from their windows, holding back cheap curtains and smiling. These people see there local area in a new light. 

A little part of me wanted to think their smiles were hiding the abuse and ridicule I have had thrown at me. But no, they were smiling because I had done something that nobody else really cared about. 

So fear not Inner West of Sydney, I'll be there to patrol the streets, photographing rubbish, graffiti and abandoned cars. What you don't give a second thought to, fills my entire day and it's all I can think of. Day and Night. 

And I hate you for it.
