An interesting and inspiring day in London today. After a splendid lunch time pint or three with my old mucker Huw Williams, I grabbed my chum Naomi Stolow and headed over to Shoreditch to have a look at the Heroes and Villains exhibition being staged at the VZ Gallery in Cheshire Street by the collective known as Hero of Switzerland. This did mean a pleasant walk around the side streets near Brick Lane and being treated to some fantastic street art. And an excellent curry at the Bengal Cuisine restaurant.

The exhibition was superb. Esme Tearle (below) and her partners in crime, Ben Randall and Dan Button have got together an eclectic mix of pieces by artists including Adam Graff, Arina Orlova, Ben Carr, Charlie Mellors, Chris Nunn, Dale Lewis, Fay Heffer, Guy Jarrett, Jess White, Kate Merry, Paul Bommer, Phil Calver, Rebecca Markless, Russell Taysom, Ryan Button, Sebastien Dehesdin and Simon Cheadle. Here you'll find all manner of heroes and villains including Churchill in a Batman outfit, Zippy driving a Dalek and even Prince Charles and Camilla as some very saucy DC superheroes.
