See that little chap on the right of the bottom photograph, who's trousers bottoms are far too short. Well, I'm pretty certain that it's me.

bless!

Did some research on the statue, it's a tragic tale.
They painted him pink, then killed him!

When did they kill good old Kong? No, the vandals pushed him over and broke his arm and did his back in but he's lived to fight another day. At his age I bet he's got osmosis in his fibreglass too. I reckon his tale is a more than passing parallel to the original tragic film. Anyway he now belongs to a company called Spook Erections and it doesn't get any better than that. Maybe we'll have a treacly "Black Beauty" style ending and with him seeing out his days in a centrally heated indoor market.

Talking of Spook Erections, I've had a few of them in my time believe me, normally at the most inopportune moments, like when taking the dog to the vets or when staring at big plastic monkeys in the Bullring.

...oh i see!, is that why your trousers had
that 'raised look' about them?

As for Kong - let's hope that they paint him a better colour.

I know who started the campaign off. Check out www.bignbostin.com it's very good. There was a big debate about it on Adrian Goldberg's Stirrer site, www.thestirrer.com

Dr Vera Jenkins says "Get behind the campaign boys and girls, black, pink, white, striped, spotty, we don't care, we want Kong back! When do we want him? NOW!!!"
