We were wandering today, and passed the Southbank. we decided to pop in and have a look at how the reef has evolved - I really wish we hadn't.

It's a bloody mess.

Honestly, so may pieces have been pulled about, they're almost loose, and there are some worrying bald patches. It looks unloved and neglected- with pieces lying at odd angles.
Oh, and my tampon piece is damaged from people trying to pull the tampons apart.

This has really saddened me. Not just that people can't interact respectfully, but that nobody has done anything to put right the damage.
