Lucky Romain vs. Bansky

For those of you in Bristol over the summer, you will have been aware of the phenomenon which was the Banksy exhibition, held at the City of Bristol Museum. Banksy is an underground graffiti artist who is... well, really, rather talented. No one expected how popular his exhibition would be. There was an estimate of perhaps up to 100,000 people visiting the exhibition. In fact, this number turned out to be approaching half a million! Consequently, many people had to queue for hours to enter the museum. Some people were reported to even to have queued for as long as 6 hours, only to be turned away because the museum was closing! Fortunately, one of our students, Romain, was among the lucky half a million to have the opportunity to see the exhibition, and he has taken these unique photographs for us. Thank you, Romain! (Congratulations on your nearly perfect TOEIC score, too!!!)
