| So, after over 200 years of waiting, the profoundly overdue creation of a statue honouring the great polymath Mary Wollstencraft - the undoubted pioneer of feminism - has been unveiled... ![cheer](/users/3715/63/33/29/smiles/2608796087.gif) - Spoiler:

| Interestingly one of the points I gained in my work Zoom quiz triumph this lunchtime was for knowing that MW wrote Vindication of the Rights of Woman. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'

| I actually really like Maggi Hambling. Well, her work at least. She's a pretty formidable old boot in all honesty. I do feel that she's pushed the 'qu**r' envelope a bit far on this one though. Also, facially, it looks considerably like MH than it does MW. ![sad yes](/users/3715/63/33/29/smiles/2158945485.gif) _________________ Ibble obble black bobble, ibble obble out!

| I prefer the original. The only thing is, I’m not sure the butterfly could survive flames of that magnitude. I’m taking it to be either a warning of climate change, or a symbolic request by portraiture that Charles wishes to be cremated instead of buried.
I’d take the butterfly out, and maybe just an add underneath ‘1948 - 202?, Courtesy of Golders Green Crematorium - no matter who you are you can count on us when you need our service, rest assured’, with the appropriate corporate logo beside it. |

I thought it was one of the queens eyes and one of Princess Margaret’s eyes. The latter (our right, his left) complete with false eyelash effect. |
