Even people who live in more ordinary setting sometimes can't resist doing something to make them stan out from in crowd. One extreme example of this 50 is Bill Heines' house in headington, Oxfordshire. Until one morning in 1986, his house looked much like all the others in his street, when suddenly overnight a 7.5 m long fibreglass shark appeared to have slashed through the roof. The shark was a sculpture by local artist John 55 Buckley. At first some people complained that it might be dangerous or that it spoilt the look of the neighbourhood, but engineers checked that the sculpture was safe and the 'Headington shark' has become a well-known and popular landmark. Itseems that no matter where you live, 60 you can always do something to make sure you house says something about who you are.
