right so i just had to do a proper grown up thing.
I had to ring the council to ask them to remove grafitti.
Basically took my daughter to our local park and a load of twats have sprayed it with tags and cocks etc all over it. big massive red willy on the kids slide.
my daughter wouldnt go on the slide, not because she knew what the drawing was but because she thought it was wet paint. one other girl wouldnt go on it because there "was a willy on it".
3 other kids turned up, i'd say that they were about 8 yrs old and one saw a willy drawing and said "that is rude and innappropriate". Her mate asked her what it was to which she whispered "its a penis". So that made me mind up to complain. even though it made me laugh a bit.
I just felt really old and responsible that i was pissed off. i wasnt that pissed off when i initially saw it but then seeing the effects it had on the kids was a bit of a shock.
EDIT: forgot half of me tale! I rang the council and despite me saying that the drawings were offensive.
the woman asked what they were, i asked if she "really needed to know that detail, its graffitti on a kids park, cant you just clean it up?" "Was it of a sexual nature sir" I said "yes, there were willies everywhere". I didnt know what else to say, she took me by surprise. why did it matter what the grafitti was , is it graded or summat, if someone completely defaced a park but with non threatening images and correctly spelt words and phrases would they not bother?
