[Will2403]

Fuck you guys! I'm going on the underground to that fins bury park square

 

[Orang Utan]

you may be ok there if you're prepared to make yourself useful. but it's rather presumptious to turn up without a tent and expect to be accommodated. you're kind of missing the point of the whole thing if you're just there to leech and perv at women. expect to be shunned.

i think they've only banned the boozers so far, not the pervs...

Ever been to London on your own before?

^^^this. And FWIW sleeping on an airbed even in summer let alone at this time of year is likely to be bloody cold. Your probability of pulling is... somewhat less than my spending a day in full slap, 4" heels and a tutu. ie. none whatsoever.

Are you _sure_?

You're going to Finsbury Park Square tube station?

 

[Treacle Toes]

What time was Wills last post?

Will...post again, I will give you directions and a few pointers.

Anyway...a great afternoon spent running a blackboard making workshop to help tidy up the front of the Fins Sq site.

They look great and will help cut down on the wastage of constantly having to update signs etc...

Whilst not the most important thing, the image of the camps is important. The Fins Sq one is attracting a lot of attention from passers by, tourist and local workers, lots of press!...Softening the front image of the camp is a way of maintaining the average person can stop and chat, leave a message and/or come in...I was impressed by the 'types' of people who came along after work to donate money and or food. Nice!

Everyone can help/get involved....I donated some bunting of all things from our local community shed which was appreciated even.

People can, hang out, help with x, y, z, work out where their skills are necessary, share ideas and info, contribute to meetings and assemblies, run workshops, deliver lectures/presentations....nothing is too small an input...practical, personal, academic...all skills are valuable.

Oh and great to see a couple of Urbanites there too today. Much more human in person as well!

Pics in a bit.

 

[Treacle Toes]

Maybe they're all at the pub

There was dicussion today that the helicopter passed over too early in the evening for people to be in bed/tent asleep. One person said that it was around 9pm-ish...not really bedtime at all, no wonder no-one was in their tent.

Just went down to Finsbury Square occupation and the idea of a third occupation in the City came up. Maybe we can just keep on going and colonise the City. It's about time it worked that way round. And if anyone asks 'What are you going to achieve?', I shall say, "You tell me what ten years in Afghanistan has achieved?" and when they can't answer I shall say "Ha! I don't know the answer to your question but if you come and ask me in ten years I bet I'll have some idea by then."

 

[Treacle Toes]

3rd camp will be needed very soon. More and more people camping out...people from out of town ariving daily which replenishes those who have been about since the start and are having to return to work/study/deal with life/personal issues.

[shaman75]
