Far be it from me to deface images of national importance.However, after a visit this morning, I note that the dandelions and plantains are fighting back strongly against the black paint - I guess it will need regular touch-ups if it is intended to keep it there until the start of the Games. Or maybe they know when the athletes are arriving for their training camps and are happy to get the publicity from the press photos and will then let nature take its course.On site I couldn't work out what the strangely-shaped black blob was. Referring to your close-up, it is Jessica's belly-button !
