My office overlooks a building site (new biological sciences building). One of the workmen has just sprayed onto the mud the message "LEE the crane driver IS A BATTY BOY" in letters large enough for (presumably) Lee to see from his vantage point in the cab of the tower crane.

The message has now been partly erased (another layer of clay and a JCB driving over it will do that), so leaving it as a riddle for future archaeologists.

There's a particularly fine sandwich shop on the Gray's Inn road called "Butty Boys".

I presume they're known for their filled buns.

Minus 1 point for the message, but plus 1 point for the medium!

I arrived on campus this morning to be greeted by a new crop of graffiti on every available surface.

Nothing of that calibre, though.

Not much a riddle. I'm sure I read somewhere that they found LEE IS A BATTY BOY in the Vindolanda tablets.
