Here's how the building site is looking today, from a new angle. It's a week since the first batch of 15 stories was left in various spots on the perimeter and I've decided to repeat the exercise. Another 15 printouts - scrawled with the words "Read me - dare you" - were left on Friday 21 October 2011, between 2pm and 2.30pm. Most are in exactly the same places as last week, as a kind of reminder; some are in slightly different locations.
This is a record of where 15 stories were dropped off this week...
Jersey Street/Bengal Street - building site hoardings, behind red Road Closed sign (identical to last week)
Jersey Street - fence to building site carpark, in line of sight to car driver (identical to last week)
Jersey Street - gate to building site carpark, by the latch (identical to last week)
Jersey Street - parking ticket machine, outside Murrays Mills (identical to last week)
Jersey Street - silver-coloured Ford hatchback, parked near the parking ticket machine further towards Great Ancoats Street, outside Royal Mills, under windscreen wiper
Hood Street - building site entrance, behind red Site Entrance sign on gate (identical to last week)
Hood Street - building site entrance, behind Site Safety sign on gate (gate was shut so couldn't gain entry)
Hood Street - next to one of the Ancoats Peeps, behind rusty downpipe (identical to last week)
Blossom Street - engineers' van, parked outside St Peter's Church, through open nearside window (glass door to church now boarded up)

This is excellent, like yarn bombing, but with stories. I will be on the lookout. visiting via circuitous route from the lit festival blog
