A hundred or so Climate Camp activists converged on a large field opposite Heathrow (on the proposed path of the Third Runway), on Sipson Lane, halfway between the villages of Sipson and Harlington. They had met in half a dozen groups at various locations around London in the afternoon and moved during the evening in vans to different sites near Heathrow. Within minutes, two tripods were erected and occupied with a large banner reading, "Climate Camp, No Airport Expansion" slung in between. Vans were being quickly unloaded, tape was marking out the barrios and, despite the pitch darkness, tents were being erected and kitchens organised and an eco-village began to take shape.
