Hugh,
They abide by all H&S safety rules. Don’t hold onto the overalls. Hold onto his legs. Keep an eye out for H&S inspectors lol
I think the logo looks Russian.

Jason, someone posted that once before, think it may have been before you became a member.
Actually it’s a low level wall and the pavement is only just out of shot ……………………………..NOT :lol1:

I aint even joking!

Funny. Look at the balcony.
I still have nightmares about that place.
We put some BIG graphics down the sides of the building as well. Working from a cradle. The worst bit was going over the edge of the building held up by 2 small wires!

Andy, I cant see even see a balcony, let alone the letters, and for some reason the pic wont enlarge, (it must be in cymk rather than rgb, thats what Dave Roland says anyway) is it in MK?

My fault, I automatically export jpgs in CMYK – habit.
Anyway, the balcony is the thing about a third of the way down the building on the front. It has white letters on it but you can’t see them very well without the enlarged view.
It is on the junction of the M4 and the North Circular in London. I did that job about 15 years ago.

Had one recently.
Told the customer how much it would cost for us to erect his sign, and he decided that they would do it themselves.
Fair enough, but I’d love to have watched them do it. 😀

Going back to the original picture – I once had a customer suggest he would hang on to my feet while I fitted a sign from a roof in exactly the same way as they did in the first picture – and he was serious 😕 – I told him exactly what I thought of his suggestion and didn’t mince my words – I was furious.
