Banksy artwork to be sold with Bristol building it is painted on

Known as Well Hung Lover, it shows a man hanging from a window ledge as a cheated rival searches for him while a woman stands by.

The image appeared in 2006 on the wall of a sexual health clinic, though the street artist is said not to have realised what the building was.

Hollis Morgan, an estate agency, is selling the Bristol property - and the Banksy - with a 250-year lease at auction next year.

New year but few thrills from PM, as Kemi Kaze climbs in Tesla with king of Great Twittain

Don't you just hate this time of year? The promise of Christmas giving way to the bleak reality of January. Cold mornings fading to grey by mid-afternoon. Nothing to look forward to except filling in your tax return. Hunkering down and praying to wake up some time in April.
