i love mattressland

Home is where the mattress is.......
Other than general stream of consciousness ramblings, hopefully interspersed with the odd gem of information/wisdom/whatever, i will be recording the extremely high prevalence of unloved and abandoned mattresses in my local area of NW10 (aka Mattressland).

The name Mattressland was coined by visiting sarf londoner Mr Stefano Bianco (aka Mickey) with the words "don't like north london - its full of abandoned mattresses"....at first i took umbrage to this unfounded declaration...until i realised he was absolutely and frighteningly correct....i have continued to record the appearance of said mattresses at an alarming rate.

So far this year.....

January


February


All in one night...all different mattresses....all in the same road!!!


March


not technically a mattress....but its a duvet + 2 pillows....guerilla-style!


and this one's thanks to my Aunty Jenny who spotted a mattress on the beach at Hengestbury Head.....taking a holiday?


and we found more when we went there again a few weeks ago.....it must be spreading.....
everything....and the kitchen sink.....
i think i might do a calendar for 2010.....i wonder if Brent Council will sponsor it?
