Well today I ventured down the tunnels and I'm glad I did , was a
very interesting experience. The so called "art" exhibition (its
the usual modern-art pretentious pseudo-intellectual crap conjured
up by art students who can't even spell "talent" , never mind
muster any) hardly takes up any space so most of the tunnels are
as-is.


The art is pretty astonishingly crap. It is indeed the usual poorly
done left wing student crap. I could have done better myself.


I don't know - I thought the neo-Communist Russia posters were fun,
and the video installation was quite moving. A lot of it was a bit
wank, though.

Well worth a visit all in all. I hope they open them up again in
future though preferable without the junk masquarading as art
inside.


It was very interesting being able to have a look round. It would be
brilliant if they opened it again. When I looked there was a strange
combination of art-studenty looking type and transport enthusiasts, and
a few odd people who looked like a combination of the two. I'd rather
stupidly left my good camera at home so the photos I did take will turn
out horrible probably. I saw someone taking quite a lot of photos and
if he's around here I'd very much appreciate it if he put some up on
the internet.


That could have been me if it was around 13:30 - black jacket,
glasses, too many bags?!
