Yes Megan, literally, sadly it is now called ‘the frog and forget me not’ I think the ‘cock inn’ was more to the point (tee hee) In fact there are 3 ponds on the common, eagle pond, long pond, and….wait for it….mount pond (oh dear) ‘cock pond’ is now a paddling pool for toddlers (oh dear)…here endeth a brief history of the common.

I presume the inn was within spitting distance of the pond?

Hey

I practice Parkour frequently around Macquarie. 99% of the traceurs (practitioners of Parkour) would not graphite the spots in which they train.

It was more likely someone who has only trained once or twice, or an onlooker that has written this.

We avoid damaging our environments to avoid the “rep” that skateboarding has.

You may be right about the spray painter, erikajoy, but I choose to think that the enmauvement is homage rather than vandalism. I also think Mr Numb has been active since Nosey first sniffed him out in 2008. Anyway, this corner has evolved even in the month since I took these photos. Check out my next post.

Nosey In Newtown indicates the remotes probably were not coloured when they were put in back in 2008 http://www.noseyinnewtown.com/2007/07/fear-hate-dumb-and-will.html. My guess is someone vandalised it after realising that they were never going to be able to get it off the concrete. Impressed this remote is still around though!
