Bicycle Tag of bike

I think it's Amersham Road, New Cross, not Amersham Way.

ooops, yes, it's the road in New Cross, you know, the one with the door painted on the wall near the bus stop.

sorry, should have checked the street name, as I've always thought of that one as Amersham Way - it's on the way home from the Amersham Arms, after all

and Wiganwill, I am no Ansel Adams, hence my choice of a v distinctive architectural feature!

If I phone the tiger, will Ludd answer the phone?

If I phone the tiger, will Ludd answer the phone?

haha! quite possibly! I'll just check the latest edition (which arrived here not that long ago)

edit: phew, they've corrected the number.

The front page now says: "From our door..."

The new tag is making me feel hungry... If I could ride a bike I'd get it in a shot.

I can't tell any features of the tag from this photo. But knowing Ludd, it's probably south of the river, anyway, and so of no interest to me. :)

Worst tag photo I can remember. It kind of excludes people who don't know ludd, I think.

Retag?

Do you want me to go and take a better pic of it?

Erm ... I hear you can 'tag' such things. :)

Have I broken the internet with my crap photo?

Jurek, I'd be delighted if you felt able to waste a small amount of your last weekday of freedom by taking a slightly less crap pic.

But how many glass-fronted buildings have a blooming great tigger hovering above the door, eh? I did think of doing a tag of the front of Mr Lawrence's place but decided that wasn't distinctve enough...

I couldn't even tell that it was a building from the photo. :)

Hmm, maybe my monitor is better than I thought. Bricks, a white painted soffit, a concrete slab fence...

Erm ... I hear you can 'tag' such things. :)

Yebbutt for me this is bit like shooting fish in a barrel. Or something.
And besides, I have Stuff To Do.

OK.
Retag by proxy. So felt I could do it without a bike in the pic. Hope it's not too easy.

Thanks Jurek!

Looks a bit better in daylight and when not viewed from under my handlebars!

I think there are plenty of people who know where it is because they live in the area. For anyone who doesn't live round there, a clue might be helpful. An equivalent, to me, would be if someone had tagged, say, a Chinese restaurant with a massive Panda on it in North West London, I'd be none the wiser without a clue.

Fair enough. What's the Persian word for tiger?

Who was Ẓahīr ad-Dīn Muḥammad ?

Yes!

But isn't that kind of how the game works? Someone posted a train-shaped climbing frame in a park a few weeks ago. If I had lived in the area, I might have known it. But as I'm nowhere near Hackney Downs, I didn't stand a chance. A giant panda on a restaurant would be fair game.

It does, but I prefer it when I can work out where something is without having previous knowledge of it. I worked out the clues for the tags near Heathrow and Foot's Cray and decided I didn't want to ride that far!

There are different ways of playing. For most people, most tags are not going to be ones they can get - they are too far away, they don't have the time, it is raining, their in-laws are staying and they are all going off to see a West End musical.
But, we can still 'play' by trying to find a tag we don't recognise even if we aren't likely to be able to go and get it. Or if we have just done one and don't want to hog the game. Without a clue that is often impossible.
The game gets very dull when it is just "Do you recognise this?".

You do have some lovely brickwork there Ludd.

Though not sure how you go past it twice a day (assuming on your commute back and forth) - isn't that a one-way street?

Old tag i know, but i really like this picture. The grey sky and the house looming ominously in the the background contrast really nicely with the honey coloured bricks.

No idea about the new tag though. Can be hard with camera-phones and no accompanying clue.

Moar clues of street name:

(a) ascent of George Bush Sr's least favourite vegetable!

(b) resurrection of Bond film producer

Also some people are better at recognising buildings and structures from photos than other people are. I didn't recognise the Hackney Downs one though I must have seen it. SkyDancer posted one of a church that I must have passed almost every day for the last 20 odd years and though I knew I knew it I couldn't place it.

Jurek has posted a better picture now on behalf of Ludd:

Ludd has also added these clues:
