for a closed tube station, he might have managed a bit more than tags and the occasional throwup.

Disgusting but if a toerag can get in and out and spend hours without being caught, doesn't say much for security. What if it's someone with a different agenda that gets free reign...?

Agree with some of the others - graffiti can be amazing when it is done with a high amount of artistic skill or is quirky / carries a message etc... Sticking your name or tag up badly ? whats the point ? do they think anyone is going to be impressed ?

Someone did exactly the same at mornington crescent last xmas when the tube was shut... look on flickr for the pics.

Disappointing effort- could have gone to town with a proper throw up or a big piece.

definitely a wasted opportunity though, they had all the time in the world. If they had a snifter of talent or at least can string a sentence together they could have come up with something like this.

Suzy has a decent camera so you can see the proper effect of the vandalism...

Why don't they let a bunch of rabid Rotvilers roam the tracks when its closed. I reckon that'd fix it.
