Simeon Monument
It's much more difficult than I imagined to get even one layer of bricks flat. All I needed here was a small, fairly level plinth which would support a plaque with a poem on it. But after struggling for some hours with a sack of recycled bricks and a bucket of rapidly setting cement, it looked like the whole thing might congeal into something similar to the Tricorn Centre. Fortunately, Martin's children, Rebekah and Jonathan arrived just in time to straighten things out before they finally set hard. (It seems they do this kind of thing all the time in their home education group).

Anyway the latest poem in the Bus Stop Poem series is now in position. It is entitled Simeon Monument and was written by Pat Murgatroyd. Hop on a 6, 7, 38 or the Medina Tour and see it in the flesh!
