[Disclaimer: I have tried to make light of last week's experience in Strathclyde Police cells but this in no way reflects the serious torment I, and my fellow G8 protestor detainees experienced. I wrote the following as my clown whilst actually in the cells and the act of writing was therapeutic for me during an intensely dehumanising experience.]On the weekend of July 8th through July 11th, I was a very lucky clown as I was invited to the Strathclyde Police Slumber Party!

we are a group of people, based in Manchester and Leeds, who hung outtogether during the events surrounding the 2005 Gleneagles G8 Summit
We are putting together a collection of reflections by people who also
protested against the G8.
That week of working, living and laughing together reminded us that our
