I think Alex thompson has been involved I think he has an account here under the name matt bama or something similar (I cant click the link word press is blocked out at work)

The big question is how long from completion until it is covered in spray paint or have chav sat on top chucking glass bottles at it

Sorry for reviving this topic, I don't visit this forum as often as I should! :oops:

Anyway, yes I am involved with this project and if you are local you may have picked up on the news that we have funding and the project is going ahead! Preliminary site work commences in the next few weeks, the boulder should be completed by August. :great:

PR from SITA Trust who helped fund the project can be found here:

Hope folks on here will appreciate the boulder, some of the comments on the Examiners FB page were a little disheartening...
