The big march was at the weekend, so too late for that. Flight codes give a hint too. VS888… 😉

No that was the rehearsal, the BIG march, anarchists included is on Wednesday. Lock up your daughters and everything else for that matter. 😮

Maybe the stars could walk from Edinburgh to Gleneagles where the G8 summit is actually taking place, some 30 miles away? 😮

But nice to see some unusual traffic, despite the inevitable issues attached to it. I wonder if the Italian anarchists chose business or economy before redressing into their prole costumes ? 😉

Rather than Live8, I thought it was bringing the VIPs for the protest march, whilst the great unwashed were expected to walk from London – Branson and Geldoff walking from London would have really made a point, but fat chance of that.

Why walk when you can burn 10 tonnes an hour in a 744 or a 346!!! 😮

Yeah, but the G8 thing doesn’t start until later this week – I think there’s more stuff planned, isn’t there (well judging by the TV coverage from Edinburgh city, someone’s expecting more marches anyway).

Andy

Nothing on the scale of the ‘Make Poverty History’ march, we have the anarchists trashing the city today. 😉 The next big thing is the Live8 concert on Wednesday.

LFC – You can be so flippant with your comments sometimes, its to raise awareness of poverty in Africa, maybe you should look at the website and read all about it before been so igronant.

Theres also concerts in France,Germany,Italy,Canada,Japan, South Africa and Russia.

Sorry, going completely off topic here…

Murrayfield, LFC.

A very nice stadium indeed that’s home to the Scotland Rugby Union team. 😀
