Chicken or egg?
Which came first - the chicken or the egg? A sign of gamification of smoking, near a university somewhere in London (maybe Bloomsbury?). Neat idea. Discourages litter, encourages debate. And possibly also smoking. The chicken seems to be winning.

18 Woburn Square
The number sign on this door is so pretty that it caught my
eye. It’s in Woburn Square in Bloomsbury, London. Named after the Duke of
Bedford’s family seat – Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire – the houses in the square
were built between 1829 and 1847 and are now mostly occupied by University
College London. Number 18 houses the Social Science Research Unit. There’s still
a small garden in the centre of the square. To my delight, I discovered that
Camden Council have run a project documenting the doors of Bloomsbury, including
those in Woburn Square – worth a look for some fabulous Georgian gems.
