They are not very good at it.

Indeed. Sometimes they just used to do the advanced warning and not bother with the bomb. Hearts of gold really.

Didn't always work as a thug may have vandalised it.

Well, yes, but then the Mick would leave and it would be ok again :shrug:

I'm surprised at you p. They can't help pissing themselves; it's the 16 pints of Guinness and the ignorance that does it. :unclepaddy:

There are 2 chaps comatose on the pavement as I look out the window, what looks like cider cans and a white wine bottle beside them.

:hehe:

The tourists are kind of standing off them, curious. I suspect some think it is street art/performance.
