Editor’s note:
A whole street of
neighbours might
wish to work together
and turn their road
into a Wild West town
or a tree-lined French
29boulevard,perhaps.
Allow homeowners to obscure their properties with
hoardings more typically used by the construction
industry. The board-fronted scaffolding could be
decorated by an image chosen in preference to the
frontage of the actual home (a country cottage or
Georgian terrace, for example) or with advertising,
which could fund actual redecoration.

Compile an historical account of any given period by
printing consecutive daily entries from a wide selection
of published or unpublished diaries. The 1940s, for
example, might be illustrated by an account of
Churchill’s day, followed by entries from individuals as
diverse as Noel Coward, Anne Frank and Fred Perry.
30There could also be an appeal for extracts from diaries
kept by members of the public during this period in
order to present a truly varied record of the times.
