Pictured at Birnbeck, Weston Super Mare both the wall and 'window' have suffered the ravages of time. The 'logo' on the top of the window is that of the Secret Society of Super Villain Artists. Little is known about the society but it appears to have been started by a street artist using the name Silent Bill inadvertently when he put the logo online some years ago, along with an application form and was inundated with responses. It is said that it a society looks on itself as a family. It holds events and the artists support each other. They also give back to society by supporting charities such as animal welfare, foodbanks and the homeless and raises awareness of injustice in society, often donating their work for the good of those who could not afford to buy it.
Beside the face on the bottom panel you can see the words 'I Love Her'. Well someone loved her enough to bring her a hot drink on a cold day it would seem!!
I guess that makes them modern day heroes so I have added a track by the Beach Boys called
Heroes and Villains

and seeing that the anonymous person clearly loves her I am also adding 'And I Love Her'
by the Beatles

Taken from the gardens above Birnbeck Pier in Weston super Mare. Steep Holm island can be see on the horizon catching the first rays of the sunset. So take your seats and let the light show begin.

A Winter Walk in Weston (PiPs) HBM

Taken at Weston Super Mare, North Somerset on the first dry day in quite a while.
Just around the corner is the abandoned and derelict Birnbeck Pier, and on our walk we discovered a little wall garden full of painted stones and ornaments including a fairy. I have not been able to discover why it is there but it brightened up a rather dull day.
There was a bench but it was too cold to sit - so I just had to 'Walk on By'
Listen to Dionne Warwick here:-

The Causeway - Weston Super Mare. As you can see the tide regularly makes crossing impossible so care needs to be taken.

Birnbeck Island. I have memories of this pier when it was still in use and paddle steamer boat trips that left from here. It is sad to see it broken and neglected.

I have also added Avril Lavigne's 'Broken Memories'

Decay in the Winter Sunlight
The old pier - Birnbeck Island, Weston Super Mare.with Flat Holm island and lighthouse in the background, beyond which is the coast of South Wales.
The old RNLI lifeboat station pictured here has closed now. When the pier began to deteriorate a walkway was built beside it to enable the lifeboat crews to access the station. However this too became unsafe and a new temporary base has been found on the promenade.
