Looks like the trees pushed the wall down. Some work needed here!

Is that the path from the Rocamar area up to Boa Vista?

Yes Big Col. It has been blocked off for a few months now because of the wall leaning over. As Cubsur's photo shows it has now either fallen over on its own or has been pulled down.

It looked like it fell over on its own. Locals have pushed the barriers aside at the bottom in usual style, I didn't go to the top as bus was due. Not sure if path still usable.

Cool, the graffiti should be gone then at least for a little while.

School's out so no street artists around. I will take a closer look later.

Not the most wonderful of architectural styles, but repaired it is. Next to it is the pristine white wall awaiting the attentions of the local scholars when they return in September.

What an ideal opportunity to catch those bastards responsible for "Kams" and "Wasp". A hidden surveillance camera with a live link to the GNR, they will catch them PDQ...

Unfortunately if they are under 16 they cannot be held criminally liable, which of course they take full advatange of, but 'wasp' has been around a long time. Let's hope they get him or her.
