   A nice ‘Banksy-style’ bit of street art, Sue.
   Best wishes, Pete.

     Yes, ‘Banks style’ sums it up, Pete!

   I was wondering how the artist could get away with copyright on this image, so I looked it up and see that it is not Mary Poppins at all.

   Bambi pulls you into a fantasy world as Princess Diana becomes Mary Poppins, floating down from the sky with her umbrella and carpet bag to meet her grandchildren, Prince George and Princess Charlotte. Diana’s carpet bag is from Harrods in recognition of Dodi al Fayed.

       It was the face that I thought I recognised.

   And I can see how Mary stays aloft in your photo, Sue. I’m still puzzled by Debbie’s photo! 🙂

   Love the image, not so excited about the quote. Not really what you want children (or anyone else) to think. 🙂

    I thought it looked like Diana but didn’t recognise the children. For me, that’s made a nice mural a bit tacky!
