Artificial Christmas Tree

Artificial Christmas trees, with their beautiful and realistic appearance, variety and convenience and ease of use are clearly the best choice this Christmas, and every Christmas because they can be happily reused Christmas after Christmas. Artificial Christmas trees don’t dry out and become dangerous tinder, a fire waiting to happen, don’t stain your carpet or hard-wood floors because you’ve accidentally over-watered, don’t make your allergies flare up and come in an amazing variety of shapes, colours, sizes and prices.

Happy Holidays to one and to all a real Christmas Tree!

The no nonsense true Brit Dave Smith has accepted the offer to help promote Skane in Sweden as a holiday destination. Dave has the opportunity to explore Skane a region in the south of Sweden. Here Dave narates his promotional video for visit Sweden (uncensored)

Visit Sweden – Skane Arts

“Oh classic – I see what you’re doing here. Blurring the lines between art and architecture – well done on that.

“Got a little coffee shop on site too? Selling some swedish pastries, maybe a few locally sourced fruit juices in glass bottles yeah.”

I could hardly believe my ears when Dave exclaims:

“Its hardly a f”in’ cornish pasty though is it?”

Dave continues by adding his own inspiration and passion for performance art  – hooking his fingers into the waistaband of his shorts he continues…

“Here you are – I feel a bit of art coming on . . . I call it the land of the midday moon – how does that fit into your modern asthetic?”

Listen to Dave – discover Skåne’s inspiring art and architecture for yourself

The land of the midday moon

Visit Sweden – the land of the midday moon

Time was when a young ruffian sprayed aerosol car paint on someone elses property he was called a vandal and if caught felt the full force of the law in return for his mindless acts of wanton destruction.

These days however in the wake of Banksy and his chums kids and adults who should know better are expressing their feelings on the walls of buildings and structures – all in the name of art.

Street Art Comes to Life 3D – is it Banksy?

My only regret is that I didn’t waste a day of my life to visit the Banksy Vs Bristol Museum earlier so that a full expose of the shameful organisation and lack of exhibits could be reported sooner and hopefully save many others the trouble of discovering that Banksy Vs Bristol Museum is a crap exhibition.

Banksy Vs Bristol Museum

If the acceptance of  street art wasn’t enough the powers that be at Bristol Museum activley encouraged Banksy to show his work during the summer at what has to be awarded the honour of  “Banksy at Bristol Museum – Possibly the Worst Exhibition – Ever”.

In an event titled Banksy Vs Bristol Museum which wrongly suggests that hooligans had infiltrated the otherwise conservative city museum and managed to disruptively sneak in an assortment of thought provoking, inspirational, hilarious exhibits amongst the regular display.

Although the BBC reported the secret stunt (cunning stunt) the illusion that the renegade street artist had broken into the establishment of the  Bristol Museum is a pathetic attempt at adding a certain irony to the event.

Bristol Museum – Banksy – Crap Exhibition

The people of Bristol must be incandescent with rage at the utter failure of the staging of this crap exhibition of Banksy in a dreadfully inadequate venue.  It could be that the organiniers primary aim was to get more footfall in the Museum – hosting a small selection of Banksy art it was merely a roose to get mugs to wander around a stale exhibition space and look at the museum’s regular exhibits whilst trying to “discover” what jolly jape the Banksy prankster had included amongst them.

What do you actually get to see?

Even when you discover the rogue works you have little chance of fully viewing the works due to the crowds waving a sea of digital cameras in front of the exhibits.

Bristol Museum Opening Times

With no regard to the immense popularity of the exhibition the Bristol Museum resolved to keep its normal opening hours – a lazy 10:00 am start closing at a respectable 17:00 – plenty of time to change out of uniform and be home ready for the 6 O’clock news

The only effective demonstration of the museum to handle the volume of visitors was shown at 16:00 when attendants began to close sections of the museum in order to completely evacuate and shut the doors promptly at 5pm

Conclusion – don’t go there – visit a real cultural event such as a day trip to Trago Mills and watch the following videos:
