Two requests in two days. The day before, on Saturday, Tina asked me for a painting of Camden Lock bridge for her daughter. I agreed to both and hope to have them ready for this weekend, although rain is forecast for both Saturday and Sunday, so it’ll likely be the weekend after.

Further plans were drawn up for the revised display with Alan the Town Crier’s help. He suggested today that all my work has a black cardboard background, like the Blond Cards. He also suggested a hanging system with hooks for my advert boards, but I didn’t fully understand how they would work, although am sure they would as, so far, all Alan’s suggestions have come up trumps.

It was his idea to have flags with instructions in each language. It was also his idea to have the big poster at the summit of my display, replacing the felt “FREE ART” sign that dates back to when I was using the pushchair the local church gave me. It was Alan’s idea to put posters on both sides of the plinth and the wall behind, but instead of hooks, my mind’s already been set on large panels for a few days now.

The wind’s been blowing anything Blu-Tac’d dangerously into the road and tourists so I’m trying to phase out its use in favour of tying everything up in jute string. I like the look of dangly string everywhere anyway. I’ll start putting a few more advert boards on the wall behind and replace the current ones as they look dull and people hardly ever look at them.

The display, as it is now, isn’t photographed by passers by as much as Zombie and Alan. It needs to be a giant artwork with Blond Card themed artwork and colours around the text.

The crypto-social LP’s are slowly making their way into deserving people’s homes and unlike Saturday I remembered to bring all three in the set. A dedicated day to crypto-social’s is on the way once I’ve stacked up enough of each token myself and have all the necessary artwork. New Blond Card characters for each using images closer to their logos is a possibility if it doesn’t run into copyright problems.

Something for the suitcase making it clearer that you’re expected to do the one minute interview is also needed. Lots of people just take one and walk off, not realising the exchange idea. It’s good for getting work out there, especially Blond Cards, but I’m going to need 3000 as it is and have too many other things sidelined on the shelf to keep letting them walk away too much.
