You may remember last Friday we featured shipping container cartoons set in Wales, Scotland and Ireland and completely left out England altogether. Well, in order to redress the balance we are going to fly the flag for England in this post and apologise to all of you who thought we were showing an unreasonable Celtic bias! But first the Union Jack.
Before we go onto Susan’s brillant cartoons, here is a 20ft container with a fantastic paint job! I just couldn’t resist it. Imagine having this at the Olympic games 2012 in a big wallfeaturing shipping containers with all the competing nations flags around one of the venues. It would certainly be pretty amazing and very colourful!
Not to be outdone, Susan just dashed off a couple of very quick sketches of how she would see steel containers being used in London. What this girl can turn out in a few minutes using a couple of felt tips and a piece of paper puts Blue Peter to shame!!
Anyway, I do hope that this redresses the national balance for all of you who felt that we had neglected England in our shipping container gallery of cartoons. Next week we are going back to – by popular demand – featuring some interesting conversions that we have seen. Mind you next week is going to be pretty busy as we hopefully launch our new website so we may just get a bit distracted by that and do something else altogether. Hope you all have a good weekend!
