Saturday 12th November 2011

Meeting outside Boots on Upper Parliament Street, protestors and activist proceeded to Vodafone in Clumber Street, a regular on the Notts uncut tour route ... to remind them of the £8billion pounds that they owe in taxes.

Since this was the first birthday of events and actions on this cause, baloons, party whistles, and cake were produced. Staff invited to join in, but they declined.  We were also joined by a rather menacing-looking clown. Some children were a bit scared!

After quite a while police arrived and joined the party.

Onward then tothe other usuals including Topshop, Dorethy Perkins another Vodafone, BHS in Broadmarch and of course Boots.  By this time we got a few more followers including Bananaman, assored Guy Fawkes and Army cadet selling p[oppies [concerned about public service and army cutbacks!].

Eventually arriving back in the Market Square for more tea and cakes at the occupation camp.

Happy birthday Notts Uncut
