You have the makings of an 'Alternative Town Tour' going on there;

1. Tavern Wrigley Walk
2. Argos Litter Vortex
3. ?
etc

'Sad Man' Telephone Box is a potential candidate - any more?

I did consider mentioning the 'lonely' graffiti. Are the winos by the river still about? Or did they vanish when Tesco moved?

The winos are more a moveable feast these days from what i can gather - perhaps advance notice and white lightning could ensure their presence.

Allied Carpets is currently inaccessible but is surely a cert, likewise Scarecrow Ledge.

Controversial Balls perhaps too conventional - Amonia(sic) Stains sounds more like the nom de plume of a Mills & Boon/Filth hybrid genre writer rather than an 'Alternative Tour' destination.

Add to that the smokers outside The West Way! Although if/when, it gets more frigid, I imagine this particular spectacle will be mostly denied to me! On balmy summer nights it is likely there are more folk outside, breathing in the exhaust fumes as well as their nubs/tabs!

The hanging balls of Tipping Street?

I'm lead to believe that they are an anti terrorist measure. If they balls don't get them, the bits falling off the building certainly will or they could get badly mauled when trying to get through the revolving doors, apparently they are made of non reinforced glass and one has smashed already.

What about the dog-end mosiacs around the benches in St Mary's churchyard? If you stand there and stare at them properly, you can find that various stellar constellations may be discerned within the apparently random patterns.

I said 'stellar' - with an 'r'...
