I LOVE an original piece of live art that keeps appearing in Bradshawgate, Leigh.

A 7ft 6in white statue - wearing a gown and hood - parks outside the Heart Foundation Shop with a notice at the base collecting for the homeless.

The first time as I passed on the opposite side of the road the figure moved before I realised it was a posing person. It must have scared some to death On returning I thought he must have made enough to get by, or packed up and stormed off in a huff with an empty box, but he must had done OK. He was back again this week.

I hope he does well, he deserves to for his imagination.
