Banksy
While in England over christmas, I closed my eyes, moved my finger around the map, and opened them with the intention of going to wherever my finger was pointed. As a result, I ended up in Bristol, home to “Skins”, Banksy and as I soon found out, the WORST hostel in the whole of Europe.
I never thought I would have the privilege of seeing one of Banksy’s pieces, but wandering around hungover looking for somewhere to buy a big breakfast, I looked up and saw this-
Of course, I’m assuming this is Banksy’s work, considering it was in Bristol and uses his distinct stencilling style. If this is in fact by someone else, please let me know and I will correct it!

It certainly is Banksy’s work.
If you have a look around the area (Stokes Croft/Gloucester Road) there are one or two more to be discovered.
I’m not sure when I’ll be back there! I don’t live in England. I’m glad it is him, I’d hate to get it wrong and give him credit for someone else’s work.
I realised you don’t live there after I’d written that!
Nice blog by the way, I had a little browse about and it’s really interesting. Hope you don’t mind.
browse all you want! I’ve only just started obviously, it’s good to know people are actually reading it!
