The March was peaceful (if a bit over Policed) and colourful and everything that this movement is all about. Reds, greens, Anarchists, lefties, pensioners, kids, marching bands, jews, christians, muslims and of course the clowns marched together to the source of our despair. The tiny town of Auchterada had clearly chosen not to believe the media scare stories about what the mobilisatiojn would bring. Locals waved from their windows and welcome notices in every different language were displayed everywhere.

The streets were much narrower that what we are used to but that didn't stop the fun.
