We were in town a bit early so we started our protest in the Shakespeare on (Sweet) Prince Street.
Always good to have Will on your side from the off.
Rachael Clyne, me, Liz Brownlee and the Northerner

Poor lad looked flummoxed. 'He wasn't ... er ... this is England ... ?'

St John on theWall
More Tim
And here's our lovely poet, Pat Simmons, taking time out from celebrating her birthday ...

At Bristol Bridge
Of course, after a bit of concentrated demonstrationing, you deserve pizza and a nice view of the Floating Harbour.

Well done, Bristol.
Good stuff Bristolians, glad to march with you. Thanks Deborah.
