Sorry I didn't make it.

22.09.2008 18:23

I set of at 7am this morning from just north of Mansfield for the 30 mile bike ride to Derby. I finished building a trailer for my bike on Saturday, and loaded it up this morning with my juggling equipment and my guitar.

Due to the pot holes in the road, and an inconsiderate motorist, 20 miles and 2 hours in to my trip, I had to stop. Unfortunately the axle on one of the wheels of my trailer broke, and I was stranded in Heanor with no way to complete the trip, or get home. Only 10 miles or so away from you.

I had today booked off at work. I have been putting together shows for weeks, writing songs and much more. This would have been my first protest.

I cannot say how disappointed I am that I missed it, and how much I went through to try and get there. Feels like weeks of preperation and work wasted.

A Radical Fool

Aldermaston Big Blockade – Monday, October 27 2008

23.09.2008 13:26

Faslane Big Blockade, 1 October 2007 (C. Gwyntopher)
Faslane Big Blockade, 1 October 2007 (C. Gwyntopher)

Help disrupt illegal work on WMD at Britain’s nuclear bomb factory

In 2006/7, Faslane 365 saw well over 1000 arrests during a year-long blockade of the Trident submarine base in Scotland. Last Easter, Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE) Aldermaston saw its biggest demonstration in two decades as 5000 people surrounded the base to mark the 50th anniversary of the first London to Aldermaston march. Trident Ploughshares now invite you to a major blockade of the Berkshire nuke factory, where billions of pounds are currently being spent developing new warhead facilities that will scupper nuclear disarmament for another 50 years. Help us uphold international law by blockading this factory of death in what promises to be a colourful celebration of life and people power. There is a role for everyone, arrestable or non-arrestable, young or old. This event is supported by CND.

*Briefing pack now available online or by post. Flyers also available.*

Trident Ploughshares is a campaign to disarm the UK Trident nuclear weapons system in a non-violent, open, peaceful and fully accountable manner.

"Non-violence is stronger than any weapon. If humanity does not end the atom bomb I do not think the human species can last." - Gandhi, speaking on the day of his assassination
