Posted by Curly (South Shields, United Kingdom) on 15 May 2012 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

He's been sitting here for years and years, trial due sometime in the next decade, charges unknown.

Found this shot in the Ocean Beach Pleasure Park, South Shields.

So silly it just had to be Tuesday :-)
