Thanks to miss Taco bell she's just spotted A mobile monacle! Apparently a custom piece of monacle grafitti much to the lady owner of the said automobile's delight! Viewing highly recommended http://flickr.com/groups/lmmas/pool/ Who's gonna spot it 1st?

The latest capture of the infamous Mutineer

Hey Munki - One of these special little guys is down the alleyway behind the North Bar / Primark, but I think it is partially obscured (secret?!). I'll get you the precise details shortly... Speaking of the North Bar, my fiance works in there and has been able to get access the building upstairs - it appears it was some kind of beauty parlour (brothel?) with a hot tub and some curious murals - see link for some pics - just thought you might be interested, or could shed some light on what this used to be...http://www.flickr.com/photos/bolerosanchezyou'll need to scroll down a little... x

Apologies Phill - this is quite obviously your thread! TTNF x

amazing . i always wondered what was hiding away above north bar alice , i remember it being knobs n knockers but never made that terrible connection . and does anyone remember the quicksilver arcade from next door ? i was in north when they demolished the frontage of it and being a pit bissed i took the big Q from the sign home with me as i liked the idea it had been staring out at new briggate for years and it seemed a shame for it to end up in a skip , i still have it on my wall ..... however to get back on track i spotted the mobile mutineer this afternoon parked up on brudenell road and very fine he looked too i must say

I'm getting the bug now. It's the not knowing that's annoying!! - Tell you what, the mutineer seems to be putting on weight!

I have about 6 sightings of the Monacle to capture yet so anymore sightings are most welcome. I think Sgt Washbone has the record so far as he seems to live in student land mutineer country!
