HAS ANYBODY SEEN THIS BOY?

Submitted by Editor on

Can any reader explain this?

We think the bouncing bather with biceps began appearing on Broughton lampposts about a month ago (this example is in King George V Park), but now he seems to be everywhere. 

Sometimes he is coloured blue, but – annoyingly – there is never an explanation or clear sense of purpose. 

How widely is he distributed? Is the design on his belly a stylised Y or a YP Is he some kind of terrifying gang rival to the Young Leith Team? 

Or simply by asking these questions are we blundering headlong into some carefully contrived marketing campaign? 

All suggestions gratefully received.
