  • did neil up load this vid ? wicked neil if u did mate long time no see

  • hiya m8, and who be this? matt the hat? i'm in south africa now and married with a dog called fluffy. whenever i throw a stick or something i can truly say 'keep it, fluffy!'

  • nice one for posting this socpa...i hadn't seen some of these images in years, and never in this edit, and they still inspire! proud to say a few of my shots are in there...from selar and pollock. all the best!

  • cheers dylan, and thanks for the shots which I nicked/borrowed from Undercurrents.

  • but let's not nit-pick. the eco-war of the mid 1990's undoubtedly kickstarted the modern environmental movement, taking the rhetoric of Rio out onto the streets, helping to revolutionize society's attitude towards the planet on a fundamental grassroots level, and in all posibility, giving you, landyloony, the wherewithal to get on your high horse today...

  • yeah, i think that you're right in terms of that individual event. This was an urban protest against a road scheme through Pollock, Glasgow. the locals chose to express their anger towards encroachment from the car culture by building a 'carhenge'. a few individuals chose to torch it on the day...

see all
