Messages on Walls: Brick Lane

Sticking with the East End stuff I’ve posted in the last few days, have a read of some of the messages on the walls around Brick Lane.

“The world is such a funny place. There’s some who’re nice and some who’re mean and all of those who’re inbetween: I hope you’re happy on Brick Lane.”

“Neil’s take on things: I’ve never had so little and been so happy.”

“To live in London is a bore, unless you’ve got a 4×4. The roads in London are a task – of course I need a jeep, why ask?”

Anyone know who wrote these or if there are any more around?
