Just read this and amazed - if not a little sceptical - about the apparent calmness shown by the family.
The price, sort of, of the property they are selling potentially rises £5 million overnight - literally - and they are honouring the deal albeit with protective strings attached.

I drew a giant gold griffin on the side of our house, but the art dealers said it was the wrong kind of Banksy

Shows society for what it is again. By people abusing them for potentially changing their mind because a £5m piece of art has turned up.

I’m sure if a £50k leak appeared the buyers would pull out. Never mind £5m

What the hell is going on in the top right hand corner of the third photo on the BBC page?

The obvious thing to do would be to come to an agreement that the house is sold to whoever is daft enough to pay £5m and split the proceeds down the middle between vendor and original buyer.

"Art" lovers scrapping over the mural's merits or, more likely, he's slipped in some dog crap.

I know, I know -

Banksey washing his brushes out!

How is it this Banksy geezer can get away with putting graffiti on the side of someone's house?

I think a couple of Covid savvy people dived for cover because someone sneezed in their direction without covering their mouth

A coat of weather shield exterior paint is Sadly Lacking. Who the Fcuck is Banksy anyway.

Exactly.....

I suspect that Banksy is Pstotto.

[evensteadiereddie]

He's a v very wealthy bloke, tim.

He is called Neil Buchanan in real life.

Hmmm he’s one mysterious fella

Wealth is irrelevant...he should be put before the courts for criminal damage. Btw. Does he own a dog?

[IanMcL]

The local litter bin has taken a tumble too! Must have been a big sneeze!

But this art, tim, anything goes. He can come and do five million quid's worth of "criminal damage" to Eduardo Mansion anytime he likes - with or without any dog he may or may not have.

I think my idea of outside art and a crooked stick on a crooked street is slightly different to Banksy's:

'There are Folk who Think They've Seen God on Toast' (Burnley backyard art from the Expanded Field Trip series 1992):

... It's a bucket in one corner and two pieces of burnt toast and an empty bottle of milk in the other.

That’s the kind of thing I’d say if I was Banksy.

[BurnleyFC]

This dick head ‘Banksy’ needs to stop going around drawing on other people’s property.

He’s a nuisance.

[Pstotto]

That's because you're a slimeball, Riley.

... When you're not nicking bird's eggs and poaching.

Looks like the houses not too far from Ashton Gate.
