20 Dec 02 - 07:41 AM (#851046) Subject: RE: PROTEST DEMO WITH GAG (PEL) From: pavane Maybe it would be nice if different groups could dress as the kind of performer who would be affected. Say a group as Mummers, a group as Morris (and Clog, and any other sort of) Dancers, bellringers (how would they dress?), choirs, marching bands and so on. Or has this already been organised? Any kind of performer who would be affected. What about the guy who had a remote-controlled talking dragon in Basingstoke mall yesterday? |

I had someone (who should know better) asking me about it only this week..... Will try and get to one of those events. Taking Bratling to the 27th one is probably useless, she couldn't remain silent for longer than 3 mins if her life depended on it! LTS |
