It wasn't a massive turn out but it was a good natured protest on a nice sunny day.

These photos are from the demonstration assembling, the drumming, songs from Tom Nelison, and the food from Veggies.

See also part 2 of this report for more photos of the march around the base.

Nice pictures but what is mass murderer Harold Shipman doing entertaining the crowd with an acoustic guitar? I thought he was dead!?

I've nabbed quite a few as examples of how to take better pics. Maybe use them in a workshop one day.
