City centre vandalism

Centrum tram stop, Friday lunchtime. Some vandal has smashed the side window on the tram shelter. An unsightly sore on the face of Our City. Younger passers-by ignore the damage.

Shame on the perpetrator - a few days in the stocks would be a good solution - punishment I'd also recommend for fly-tippers who dump their old fridges, sofas and household waste in woods and fields.

Right: framed by the broken glass, a grey-haired passenger takes a moment to survey the damage. He's thinking what I'm thinking. In the background, the Novotel (formerly Forum) hotel on Rondo Dmowskiego. A cold wind's blowing, time to hurry back to the office on board a 35 tram.

Below: as the tram passes Pl. Zbawiciela, I snap the Tolerance Rainbow, which has been torched again by some nasty element.
