View Full Version : Boys Will Be Boys
B Fraser 24th Mar 2009, 22:09 An 18-year-old has secretly painted a 60ft drawing of a phallus on the roof of his parents' £1million mansion in Berkshire. It was there for a year before his parents found out. They say he'll have to scrub it off when he gets back from travelling.
Well done laddie :D

BlooMoo 24th Mar 2009, 22:17 It's amazing what you can do with computers these days...
con-pilot 24th Mar 2009, 22:29 Looks more like a torpedo to me, maybe the lad wants to have a naval life?

It's being reported all over the place with photos from different angles - so looks like it's for real...

Captain-Random 24th Mar 2009, 23:13 I heard a story where a lad used powdered weed killer and drew a picture of a massive penis on a his neighbours garden. When it rained the powder soaked into the grass and voila a nice yellow penis on your green lawn for the next 12 months :D
Standard Noise 24th Mar 2009, 23:18 Now there's a lad that shares my sense of humour.:}
heli-cal 24th Mar 2009, 23:25 How proud his parents must be!http://i666.photobucket.com/albums/vv29/helixpteron/happy0009.gif
Whirlygig 25th Mar 2009, 00:41 I wonder if perchance he may be related to this chap; I think we should be told.

Something similar on Google Earth in Hazelton Pennsylvania (http://maps.google.co.nz/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=40.958025,-75.96996&sll=40.958017,-75.969585&sspn=0.001847,0.004807&ie=UTF8&ll=40.958495,-75.969965&spn=0.007389,0.019226&t=k&z=16&iwloc=addr)!

Loose rivets 25th Mar 2009, 02:31 Ooooo....what would Erich von Däniken make of that?
reynoldsno1 25th Mar 2009, 02:47 ISTR an industrial building owner near San Francisco International airport painted "Welcome to Los Angeles" on the roof - or it may have been the other way round - good job:ok:

Well can you write your name in the snow to be seen from the air?
fernytickles 25th Mar 2009, 03:27 If your phallus is as big as the one on the roof, you should be able to...
V2-OMG! 25th Mar 2009, 03:38 If your phallus is as big as the one on the roof, you should be able to...
Ask her for a date? Hope you meet her expectations 'cause I'd hate to get her pissed.

Brentford FC had a sign on their stadium roof in the 70s which said "NEXT TIME FLY KLM" which could be seen on the Westerly landing approaches to LHR.
B Fraser 25th Mar 2009, 07:34 Ooooo....what would Erich von Däniken make of that?
We come in peace ?????
Beatriz Fontana 25th Mar 2009, 08:35 If only Google Earth had been around when we were kids, then our scrawlings on the beach would have had a far wider audience than the RAF/USAF pilots on their bombing runs!
Marvellous!

goatface 25th Mar 2009, 20:31 Either they were in on the act all along or his parents are never looked up, had the gutters cleaned or paid neighbours/passers by not to say anything.
It's clearly painted on a canvas which has been attached to the roof and stretches some considerable distance either side of the apex.
Getting it up there un noticed and unassisted would have been a mean feat in itself, sorry to spoil their 5 minutes of fame but I can't understand how they didn't notice it.
Whirlygig 25th Mar 2009, 20:38 It was noticed :ok:And on Mil Aircrew.

Davaar 25th Mar 2009, 20:39 If you ask me, his Dad did it, the rascal. Also, it has been noticed.
McDoo 25th Mar 2009, 21:51 Now that's what I call a cock - up :ok:
Buster Hyman 26th Mar 2009, 02:13 Unfortunately, he never got to finish the sign that went with it...."This way to Jeremy Clarksons house"
kiwi chick 26th Mar 2009, 07:50 What is it? :confused:

Is it? Given the apparent age of the house I'd hazard a guess that it is painted/drawn on lead flashing which is covering a flat roof (the fact the roof is flat is clearly evident from the rhight hand side of the house).
