Well, I've had an eventful weekend. Which was nice.

I went on my march. When I say my march I had a part-share in it with close on 2 million others. 2 million people. I tell you. It's a lot of people. And being in and surrounded by 2 million people is a heck of a way to spend an afternoon. And trust me, although police figures say 750,000 it was near 2 million.

So, that figure. 2 million. That's one in 30 of the UK population on the march in London. That's a huge proportion prepared to get up and act. Last week when I was telling people I was going on this march at least another nine in 30 agreed with me, and said they had considered going. That's one in three. So at least a third of this country have grave reservations about this war. That's what my unscientific study tells me. And I bet it's more than that.

It was good. Except for the fuck off blister on my foot. Less good.

Then there was rugby. Also good.

Then I went to a friend's birthday party in the local. And it was good. Eventful highlights? None really. We left early.

And I did some study yesterday. For such an eventful weekend this update is pretty nondescript.

Apparently, according to some received wisdom, a picture is worth a 1000 words, so I'll post some later. In fact, do you think my tutor would accept a couple of well taken photos instead of an essay?

And in other things, why does no one leave me messages anymore. Goddammit. Am I that unloveable. Come on guys, give me something here!
