    Hi Beek.

    Do you know what it means or who does it?

    No and no I'm afraid! I've seen those little toasters everywhere, on escalator risers, lamp posts and the like for years, I was amazed to see a jumbo one on SGR. I didn't want it to go unmissed - like the Bruce Lee stencil which used to live on the wall just a little way up SGR, by the entrance to the Rail Depot... it dissapeared 5 or 6 years ago but was V cool while it lasted!

    Funnily enough, the poster I've flagged up was replaced last week with one from Haringey council - advertising their graffiti hotline!

    On a board on Mountview Road there's a little stencil which says 'If you're worried about being anxious, you're already anxious'

    I think it says that anyway - it's along those lines.

    I'm going to take the Toaster Poster picture to a print shop and make a toaster poster coaster.

    Then when I've got it I'm going to come on here bragging about it, and I'll be the toaster poster coaster boaster.

    Reminds of a wonderful moment in a documentary about Lee Scratch Perry. He was hanging/swinging off a big gate and had placed a toaster on top of one of its pillars.

    Interviewer: "Lee, whats with the toaster?"
    Lee: "I am not a boaster"
    Interviewer: "Huh?"
    Lee: "I am not a boaster, I am a postive toaster."

    Then he smiled like he'd just unravelled the mysteries of the Universe.
