I bet that chain-link fence topped with barbwire is to keep skateboarders out. Good idea.

On the other hand, they could make it a skate park and charge the skateboarders an entry fee and make a fookn forture!

I always wondered what happens to the barrels people send good in - I saw quite a few barrels being used to catch water in Jamaica.

From a distance it looks like a concrete truck tipped over and spilled concrete all over a Jamaican mountain side. This is actually how Jamaican’s collect rain water so they can use it as drinking water!
