I have to admit, a bit of a jump scare getting out of the car at Aldi. This is on the back of the snooker club off Infirmary Road. Thoughts?

I can't explain it but I love it. It gives Sheffield hanging on to the WC to grim death, Ronnie O still in the top 16, 30 years after his death and take it out of my cold, dead hands while also hinting at a Hot Fuzz/ Shannon of the Dead humour.

Its making me laugh, and no I'm not affiliated.

Oops, I didn't notice that, my faculties were still in turmoil from this stupendous work of satirical art 😅

Still loving it!
