I mean that wouldn't really deserve to through the first round.

that's garbage. I liked CWS when it was just actual Cold War era pics with Phil Mitchell insertion. It's been shit since Brexit.

Is that Egg Wallace outside Mr Egg? It's a bit hard to make out.

Is Boris Johnson a Brummie as well as a Yank and a Russian?

It's not very good, is it? Don't get the popularity really.

The Mollusk

As a former teenage greebo from the West Midlands I am intensely happy that the beloved alternative clothing shop Oasis has been included. But other than that, it's a heap of shit image.

Sebastian Cobb

Seems like a rip-off of the Birmingham it's not shit campaign to me.

Harry Badger

Cold War Steve is blue-tick smug shit for cunts. The fucking fawning comments underneath them boil my piss.

Puce Moment

The books in the 2nd hand bookshop next to Mr Egg was fucking great in the 90s. They also had a shabbily erected little mdf hut thing in the corner for all the porn.

There's way more talent on this forum.

Also, if I was from Birmingham, I'd be getting extremely tired of the 'Benny off Crossroads' thing that peaked around 1978.

Although it is difficult to tell, I'm fairly certain it isn't.

Don't forget HP.

Readers World. Used to be in the underpass till the Bullring was redeveloped, then egg-adjacent as you say, then in Digbeth. Still had a stall in the market until recently I think.

According to the article he was asked to do it in September last year and it was completed in April this year. So it took him 7 months to get a list of famous Brummies off Wikipedia then copy and paste pictures of them into a slapdash collage. I can only presume he didn't bother until lockdown started then spent a whole afternoon on it when he'd finally run out of other things to do.
Not that I'm just bitter because I'm not on it, but that Malala is and I've lived here longer than she has. I expect her inclusion on this seminal work makes getting shot in the head worthwhile.

Fucking hell, 7 months!!!!!  It's about as good as my rushed Paint efforts on here, and I spend about 7 minutes!  I guess the remaining 6 months, 3 weeks, 6 days and however many minutes is used to tidy up the edges that I don't bother with (believe it or not).

6 of those months was probably meticulously checking he hadn't accidentally included someone from The Blackcountry by mistake, which would've obviously ended his career

The University of Wolverhampton have given him an honorary doctorate for his slapdash collages too.

He doesn't even bother matching the colours either.

Do The Pallasades and the HP factory still exist? Thought HP stopped making stuff back in about 2008 and moved production to The Netherlands. If not then I've about 12 years of boycott to make up for.

The entire Pallasades is now the world's massivest Primark and yes, HP moved production to Europe years ago.

Cold Meat Platter

I may be imagining it but I'm pretty sure it didn't taste the same after the move. Not as spicy. Bring back Marathon etc.
