'The life-size decorated gorillas that have been placed on an arts trail in Bristol's streets and parks have been a huge success.'

the pictures of the decorated gorillas are just spectacular!

Banksy Gorilla

As I understood It, the Gorilla's were In the theme of Banksy's Gorilla. Maybe I should have made that clearer.

None the less, they have been a wonderful sight In Bristol.

Then I could be wrong. It does not detract from the subject of just how wonderful they are however.

I note that the main lawn is slowly showing signs of recovery from the huge number of people who trampled it into a mudbath while viewing the gorilla sculptures. Holding it on the lawn instead of the concourse was an appalling misjudgement.

The photo is the two lion cubs and their mother this morning - they're growing fast.
