Note:  Not a tag but pro-Nazi Graffiti and third time this week with that indelible ink we had not seen in a year or more.  Willemina delivered toilet rolls, saw the tag and rang in a second request for removal at circa 2:30 pm.  She took a photo for PPCS records.
Friday 22 July:  circa 7-10 pm, tagging with thick purple paint spread over side wall facing Manners Street, all of rear wall and top third of wooden door.  Estimated 50% of wall-door space covered.  Not seen on that scale here for well over a year. 
Circa 11:50 pm, reported to office and call taken by  Garry's voice mail.  
Saturday 23 July, between 8 am and 2 pm, tag in unit 1 removed in error from tiled walls only by Malleela who had not received instruction to leave all removals to SB Maintenance
Circa 2 pm, Malleela logged unit 1 job for second time.
Sunday 24 July; two more tags added to door of unit 1.  Not reported until 8 am, Monday 25 July.
Saturday/Sunday 23/24 July:  small hard-to-see tag at rear air vent at back of unit 2.  Not reported until SB Maintenance arrived to clean up unit 1.
Monday 25 July, 8 am reported three remaining tags on door of Unit 1 to office.  Removed circa 11 am by SB Maintenance .
Tuesday 26 July:  8 am reported stencilled graffiti with words "F**K Your Diet".  Probably drawn late Monday night circa 6 p.m.  Removed circa 1 pm by SB Maintenance.
Note, custodian is a diabetic with special dietary requirements.  Insult therefore taken personally.  Never seen a stencilled system used in 4-5 years experience.  Very unusual.  Photo taken by custodian and by SB Maintenance.
Summary:  A very unusual week!  Eight tags or graffiti reported and removed over nine days.  Previous average before policy changes in mid July was 1 tag every eight days or even less frequently.  A most unusually high rate of tagging - all of a sudden! 
Three with printers' ink require special toxic chemical to remove but our cleaning materials are not of sufficient strength to deal with.
One made use of a stencil - never seen before.
The massive tag in unit 1 was the biggest we had seen here in well over a year.
