Speaking of eBay, "Dismaland Found" is quite an entertaining search. Some people have waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more money than sense.

no mate I didn't do it . It's on the website

Sorry to have been forgotten you for a while my friends ( I was, I am still busy, and I think that I am still drunk or K.O. by my hjourney in Daismalnd, - how fabulous it was !!! ) .
I had problems with my kids too ( the director of the school of my son called me in Dismalan, lol , with the music behind me ! ) , health ( I have, amongst other things, a knee Kaput and to be operate ) , with my mum ( well, she si not so young too, 30 years more exactly tahnt me ) , who made a brain attack ( she is stilll alive and feel better ) the day or my return - I was wtill in London - for France.
Then the job, tireness, but I won't complain, I have passed one of my best moment ever ! Since my youth, punk and musical period, in London, in Paris, my paints, etc, etc...

Mr Plip have posted an interesting post, about : what you learned ( or retained ) of Dismaland : as I am not a good writer I will copy/paste what I wrote in the UAA.. Sorry for that. But I have to be in agian, and I am rather out ( I will post videos and pics soon )

" First, I learnt, except Dismaland's show hitself, that there were fabulous people and big generosity - who gave me of their firendship, of their time,their money, their art : so that I can cross England. Most are on this forum but on an another forum and Facebook ; thanks to them.

I learnt to move the ass, to prepare a journey and to travel, things which I had not made for 35 years at least!
I learnt to walk, and walk, to run , and to anticipate everything, sometimes in the minute.
I remembered that the English people are very very pleasant ( and/or so funny) , generous and nice, and that the steack and kidneypie is a wonderful dish. That pubs have the ass much less tight than our sad French cafés.
After my departure, I was a bit disappointed and I finally remembered myself of the famous sentence of Rotten: " never trust an hippy " .

On the show itself :

I learnt that Bansky has wonderful tastes in art and that insatiable sound curiosity made us the best known ( artists ) of them.
I learnt that Banksy and his team is incredible: to have prepared this amusement park without awakening the slightest suspicion. We talked to this with M.
I saw extraordinary artworks and felt in love with this dragoon ( more than a snake ) truck.
I learnt that my French accent maybe harmed me, that I still spoke badly, and that I had no chance to win at one of these games , apart by hurting my hand with a riffle, lol!

I squeezed the hand to Darren Cullen, made a selfie with De La Soul and a singer of the Pussy riot (incredible show!), I did not recognize Damon Albarn nevertheless by my side.

I remembered that I could not be everywhere, that I would have wanted to be more with some of the forum when other "local" friends and styreet-artists ( I did not say vandal, lol - Hi Dan, H i Daren ) , gave me all their friendship, until love ! I never had hugs in my life : that's great for the chest and for the mind. Gimme love I will give you my love too.

I discovered a friend of the forum who liked the art for art's sake and who has a knowledge, an intelligence and an incredible vista on the art, artists and the artworks!

Especially, what it is necessary to retain of Dismaland, it is that 80 % of the visitors had come there, as we go to an amusement park before any, in family, and did not even know Banksy or his artworks (incredible but true!).
I learnt again the freedom and the exile, that the English people liked their youth and to have good laugh.

I forgot to speak about the VIPEE room, incredibles toiletts, witht a queue as big as a in Harrods sales, where 2 girls and a man had the same pee ( ? ) in the same loo ( men were per 6, what a mess, I could not piss ! )

Yes a bit of Glatonsbury festival there, I guess...

edit : I learned that Mickey mouse has ears, to like them, I did not remember by the past any comics by Disney, apart the castle logo ( the comics and movies were bo boring ) "

I learned too that if you want something, you have to merit it and to " work " to have it.

And, after this show, what do we learn about prints ?

Anyway, A big salute to all of you ! Fed, Json, Iggy, Johnny, Curiousgeorge, Notmattl, Dashboll, Plip of course, Ekap, OUrobouros, Redneck, and a lot of you ( sorry for my memory folks ! :-)

looks better than mine

I'll take 2 - but only because it says Dr. Rip instead of Plip

is it really yours ? ( Toast won't answered me until I will sell him my Stik mum , lol )
If so that's great !
