Pleasure Bus Tour

Creative Cupboard Exhibition 09

2009-03-27T14:00:00.004Z

We were kindly asked by our new employees (Agency Republic) to take part in a Creative Cupboard exhibition, displaying the Pleasure Bus Tour's Arty goodness in the smallest gallery space in London, a cupboard. We had lemonade and crisps to celebrate the grand opening. Plus Kate Moss turned up for the opening with a 20 strong harem of leggy lovelies. Which is a big smelly porky, but it was a wonderful evening. Thanks to everyone involved in making it happen.

Whatta 2008 eh? Bring on 2009 and more Pleasure Bus antics yeh? Hope you all had a super good time. Over the Christmas I discovered this little beauty in my dads stash of photos. Think it's the only picture we've got that proves that our pleasure Bus actually moves. Wonderful. Look forward to seeing you in the new year and try to stay out of mischief. xxx

Framing....

2008-10-05T20:38:00.003+01:00

If you've bought any prints from the Pleasure Bus Tour here are some suggestions to make them hang happily on your walls...

The large prints (50x70cm) are a standard poster size. You can buy frames that fit these babies in snuggly from the likes of IKEA, Habitat or Heals.

We bought our frames from e-frame.co.uk. e-frame have a really good walk through ordering system that allow you to choose the style of frame, colour, mount and dimensions you'd like for your print. This proved ideal for our smaller prints (35 x 50 cm).

The 50 x 70 frames worked out about 25 jib and the 35 x 50cm frames worked out about 18 golden nuggets from e-frame.

My bro, Richy had a great idea. He put his "Let's Play" print in a Yellow Frame, which looks really good as you can see. He had his professionally framed, which takes the hassle out of it, but can be a bit more pricely. Still, looks good bro. N1ce.

If you have any suggestions for framing or want to ask us any more questions about getting your prints framed, get in touch. Email... them@pleaseyourself-london.com

Wiley can keep his Cha Cha Slide dance, we've got the Bees Knees Wobble. We took this in Bristol, but due to our lack of internet speedage have had to keep it on the sidelines. The dance is performed by Miss Kerry Whitson. Good moves Kerry. We think you're onto something there lady. x

Hello Home

The Pleasure Bus brought the sun back and blew bubbles to celebrate.

Twas great to see lots of friends and everyone who popped by. We've stuck the pics of you in our flickr album. There's some Good Uns.

Also, Thanks to everyone who came along and ate their jerk chicken next to our mobile art gallery. It was fun. Must do it again soon. Next time we see you we'll bees knees you (we'll have a fresh batch by then).

Pleasure Bus Tour Finale, London.

2008-09-19T10:09:00.002+01:00

We'll be here this Sunday; Brilliant News.

We're setting up the Pleasure Bus Mobile Art gallery this Sunday (21st Sept) in the car park opposite the Truman Indoor market (if you head round the corner from the big chill bar and walk towards Spital fields market you'll see us in our big gold van). We'll be there from 10am til 4pm. Pop down for the wrapping up of the Pleasure Bus Tour. It'll be super to see you.

Hold Your Horses....

2008-09-17T16:19:00.002+01:00

That's not it is is?

Nope, we're hunting around like men possessed to have our closing exhibition in London Town (somewhere). We're home, but not quite finished. We'll keep you posted on where and when we'll be setting up the Pleasure Bus Mobile Art gallery very soon.

Also, we'll be putting up a Pleasure Bus Tour Shop in a bit. We'll be selling any art work that hasn't been snaffled, so anyone who couldn't make it to any of the destinations can still get bag themselves some arty goodness. Apparently this internet shopping is all the rage nowadays.

If you're in Notts head up to the Shop and look out for Moot art gallery. Fresh & super friendly. Catch you soon Notts.

We did the Nemesis, Air, Willy Wonka's, Corckscrew, Rapids, The Wetpants, but our favourites have to be Rita & Screwball Pinball. Rita, the Queen of Speed was like a bullet. Much faster than the Pleasure Bus. And the Pinball one, was just plain stupid. Loved it.

The Pleasure Bus escaped to the Sherwood Forest and hooked up with Robin Hood and his band of merry men to hatch a plan to overthrow the Sheriff. The best plan was to set up the Pleasure Bus Mobile art gallery in the Forest. Not a great plan. But still a plan.

Sheriffs Runs Pleasure Bus out of Nottingham

2008-09-10T08:58:00.003+01:00

Bad news guys, the Sheriffs of Nottingham, have forced the pleasure bus to flee, so Nottingham is cancelled (for now).

Apologies to all the lovely Nottingham folk who would have loved to have visited the Pleasure Bus Tour. We're gutted too. We love Nottingham, and one day hope to return, to overthrow the big bad sheriffs who crush our fun with their parking, trading and health and safety laws.

We know it's not the same, but the shop will be available online in a few weeks, and we'll make sure those who missed out on getting bees knee'd are justly stickered up.

Now, to the woods, we need to hatch a plan to overthrow these kill joy sheriffs.

Today we visited lots of cracking shops and places in search of a place to set up the Pleasure Bus Mobile Art gallery tommorrow (Weds). we took in some brilliant galleries, studios, the castle and many many shops and are awaiting a green light from some very special people before we let on where we'll be.

As well as hunting for a venue we snapped some tourist attractions (bagging some arty finds - check our flickr) and the did some obligatory shopping. Nottingham is packed full of gud stuff to snaffle. I bought a compulsory Robin Hood hat (as I'd lost one at party previously), and we raided Tat, a treasure trove of records, Knick Knacks and, well Tat. We walked away with a tin, a super 8 camera, a diary written in 1948, and a pair of musical braces. Nicely!

So... we now say hello to Nottingham, Robin Hood country. We're meeting some lovely locals, and are being guided by resident, postman, artist and super chap Andrew Cullen (or Rod to us). Thanks Rod, you're a star.

This is a pic from our excursion into Nottingham where we met D & S Seafood frontman Dave, who has apparently been selling cockles & pots full of fishy stuff for the last 42 years. Good work fella. You're definitely the bees knees.

No way Jose.

So this is the plan of action. Thursday night, ellis house from 6.30 onwards. txt me for the address if you want to come if you don't know where it is. Am really looking forward to seeing family and friends, and showing you all the PB art gallery and shop. If you want to invite some buddies, do. just no riff raff yeh?

The locals have interpretted the Sun Dial as many things; a rocket launcher, and giant potato peeler. Fortunately for them, the Good news put their minds to rest on the Rocket Launcher front.

Oscar O was super on Saturday. He stuck bees on knees, kept us all entertained, ran riot in the paddling pool, helped pack our gallery away, and got a much deserved lift to the station in the Pleasure Bus with his Mama Cathy O. Lot's of love to you guys. I think we've found our third PB crew member in Agent double O. x

Big thanks to Oscar for this amazing drawing he did of the Pleasure Bus in Bristol. You're a star Agent double O!

Ol' blondie locks came to visit the Pleasure Bus on Satursnacks. It was brilliant to meet the man behind the Birds in Shoes. Simon was fantastic to have around. He brought charm, laughs, pens. What else can you ask for eh? Hopefully we'll hook up with Mr Peplow for future shenaigans. Be quick to bag yourself some Peplow Prints, They're Big, and there's only a few left now.

We're giving away these cracking Happy Vouchers on the PB Tour, that allows you to snaffle a free Anorak magazine (the happy magazine for kids). If you see the big gold bus, make sure you pop across and get one. Inspirational stuff for the nippers.

The lovely Ruth Hardaker (Kirst Ma) baked us a cake for the Pleasure Bus Tour. It was brilliant. Our little gold toy bus sank a little in the delicious choco topping (much like when we were in Newquay). Big Bus Love to Mama H. it was lovely for breakfast too!. x

Kirst & the Hardakers join the PB Crew.

Yes Yes, we we're in prime location at the Bristol Art Market. Right next to the big disco ball (part of @ explore). Next time we hit Bristol we'll bring a disco, lights and make the most of this fantastic landmark.

Paul runs the B.A.M (Bristol Art Market) in millenium square. He was total star helping us set up the Pleasure Bus Tour gallery in a cracking location. Mr Witt was a cracking source of arty knowledge and is well informed on the Bristol art scene. It'd be great to hook up with Paul again in Bristol. N1ce Paul.

Big Pleasure Bus love to the Here Gallery

We love this place. Loads of arty goodness everywhere. Smashing folk too. The Here gallery is based in Stokes Croft, just outside Bristol. It reminds us of Dalston, a bit ghetto, but mostly thriving with good stuff. There's a fantastic arty vibe there, and the gallery is hubbing the action. We could have spent a small fortune in there, but the bus just can't take it. N1ce ben & crew. Hopefully see you over the weekend yeh?

I went for a run in Braunton, the home of egg. I think I bit off a bit too much and ended up doing half a marathon. Check the flickr to see my discoveries. Nice bit of cheeky stickering above. Love it.

Yeh, you might think that this is a jolly holiday rather than a serious art gallery, judging from our promotional pics (ie night's on the lash sticking bees to knees), but we are working. It's like going back to Dial up in most of the places we camp. But we'll take that, cos we get to do BBQ's, play footy & doodle in fields. Nicely.

We've kidnapped Cliff.

Yes Cliff has been captured by the Pleasure Bus. He tried to resist, but we lured him in with wimbledon strawberries and cream. Wish he'd stop singing "we're all going on a summer holiday" though. he's like a broken record. More "Devil Woman" Cliff. Sort it out Richards.

We have light!

But now we also have moths. Don't like moth's much. They're like some sort of winged cockroach, indestructable and minging to look at.
