 Mark McGowan, a 37-year-old
artist, arrives outside 10 Downing Street, in London Friday Sept. 12,
2003. McGowan protesting against student debt, completed the bizarre
stunt Friday of rolling a nut seven miles to Downing Street using only
his nose. Crawling on his hands and knees, McGowan nudged the nut up
the steps to the famous black door of Number 10. He began his journey
at Goldsmiths College in south east London on September 1, and has covered
around three-quarters of a mile per day, working in eight-hour bursts.
McGowan handed the nut over to Number 10, along with a letter asking
Prime Minister Tony Blair to accept it as payment for his student debt.
I would gladly trade one of my nuts for a blanket amnesty for my own student
debt. They could probably put it to better use than I
