Lego?

 
 
We´re back at Bayswater - mural by ...
 

 ...Graeme Miles Richards. Such joy to find the artist and find out who he is and what he does - sad that most in Germany have to work "undercover" and you near to never find out anything!
Anyhows...
 

 

 
 
"Habits of the 1960s that would be unthinkable today 
 

 
 
Corporal punishment
 
It was considered appropriate in schools because it was also a common method of disciplining children at home."
 
Only at home, not at school in my time and now... not at all! To the pupils but in some cities here the teachers are at stake. Crazy times...
 
Henry 🦁

Dear friend Iris, these Lego creations are fabulous. I remember corporal punishment in school. Henry is a handsome Santa.
Sending you warm hugs 🫂 🤗 and much love.

Dear friend Linda, there were beautiful murals to be found! And wee... punishment in school... unthinkable today or, even worse, these days the teachers fear corporal punishment! To better times warm hugs and much love sounds better! 🥰

What a fantastic mural. So well thought out and never seen before. But yes, of course, there is more in the mural world that I haven't seen before

I like the Lego addition to this mural. I just built my first larger Lego. That's something for your back in the 60's was that girls were given dolls and boys got Lego bricks. Not fair at all! Happy new week. hugs-Erika

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you, Jeanie, from both of us!

Iris Flavia said...

I love this mural. Legos are after my time. LOL Oh yes spankings in school. I was maybe 3rd grade, throwing rocks with some boys. I got hit in the mouth with a rock. We all had to see the principle. I only got once swat with the paddle because I was already hurt. The boys got 3. I was more humiliated than anything.
