One of the gable end walls which carry advertising murals had been repainted with a brightly coloured advert for Clarks shoes and round the corner was an ad for Dr Martens boots while the other two gable ends were painted plain grey, obviously waiting to be repainted with more advertising. The bull (best viewed from a distance) was on the shutter of the butcher's shop on Tib Street and though it's been there for quite some time I've never managed to photograph it before as the shutter has always been raised whenever I've gone past. On the wall above a cafe and vintage clothing shop in Oldham Street I spotted four tile mosaics. They had obviously been there for quite some time though as I don't often walk along that particular section of the road I hadn't seen them before, but they were quite attractive so I was glad I spotted them. Having eventually veered away from the NQ I found some rather attractive hoardings around the site of what will be a new hotel and another set of brightly painted steps, these ones having a flower covered bicycle halfway up. I was also really pleased when I later found five artworks by the same artist (Hammo) in a side street I'd never been along before and also unexpectedly found a more recent artwork by Qubek which I'd seen on Instagram but which gave no indication of where it was. The Qubek artwork was only a relatively short walk from Deansgate/Castlefield station and tram stop so I made that one my last shot then went to get the tram round to Victoria station in time for the train back home. It had been another successful street art hunt, and knowing how quickly some of these artworks get replaced it won't be long before I'm back in the city once more.
