Occupy Notts Camp sticks it out starting week 9
12-12-2011 20:55
12 December 2011
Occupy camp now just finished its 8th week since setting up in the Market Square, Nottingham.
A variable week with some ups .... and downs. It's been a bit rainy and windy.
A new structure has been started to try and keep the campers more comfortable and to defend against some of the predicted extreme weather on the way. Much heaving, bending and hammering, but it's nearly there.
Between one of the storms, cosmic to see a double rainbow over the camp. [well more accuratly titled: "Rainbow over Primark"].
Helen the Hat, an Occupy London regular supporter came by with her laptop. A Livestream connection http://www.livestream.com/occupylsx was made to the London Camp and people had an interview exchange, swopping experiances and stories.
On Saturday, there were a much higher number of drunks in the area, and those shouting abuse. One chap with his mate damaged a couple of tent and then I'm told assaulted a couple of the campers, again. [Alegidly, he's done this twice before]. Being restrained, his mates said let him go and he wouldn't do it again! Police were called and he was taken away.
Winter [bloody] Wonderland next to the camp continuing to bang out the usual oh so jolly xmas numbers. I still say that this is a sound weapon to drive all insane. [A bit like the US Marines playing VERY load rock music to General Manuel Noriega in his compound during the United States Invasion of Panama http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_invasion_of_Panama ..... well perhaps not quite that extreme].
Loads of rain, windy and getting cold at night now, so I think those holding out against the elements for these issues, need to be congratulated for their commitments and deserve help and support from us.
Please drop by and offer your time, help, donations of food, bedding, waterproofing, warm clothing ...... oh, a bit of love.
