Since returning home, I have discovered that the Podule I climbed on was not just any old sculpture but was a work of art that had been lovingly created by an artist called Jan Niedojadlo and was called Shipley Wreck, It had been commissioned by the Shipley Art Gallery in 2005 for the exhibition 'Under and Over the Sea' in celebration of the 200th year of the 'Battle of Trafalgar'
If you liked it and would like to see more of Jan Niedojadlo's podules they can be found at http://www.podules.org. Inspired by his creations I went searching for other artistic works.
It suddenly seemed that everywhere I went there were all sorts of other exciting art works to look at. Gold Humps covered in CDs; Super size sand castles; various picture exhibitions and many other things.
The next piece of art I discovered to climb upon was a bit more or a spiky problem as it was a Cacti in a field of Cactus but fortunately I found a bit which was not too sharp.
From my vantage point on the Cacti I was able to watch the world go by and scan the crowd for anyone interesting to talk to, but more of that later.
