Great!
My favourite was the giant inflatable cartoon style bunny rabbit in the local
'International National Gallery' (it's really called that, to distinguish it
from the 'Modern' National Gallery). There was a two part wall plaque - the
first in unintelligible Artspeak and the second, for children which began,
"This is not just a bunny rabbit…" "Oh yes it is!" I replied, loudly. The
children's version was actually comprehensible, if rather condescending.
