May Day!Follow

I'm not going maypole dancing, but I am going to a 40's style knees up, which sounds like a bit of a giggle . And out for dinner in the evening with my daughter and my parents .

More info please, this sounds intriguing.



I would wish you luck but that would be a little ****** up. I wish you bad luck? Or would that mean you got it? Hell, I don't know. Shutting up now.

Its being hosted by one of the local museums, they're going to have proper 40's music, with male and female singers . Also, they're bringing old people down to give speeches about what it was like during the 2nd world war - not just soldiers, but housewives who struggled with rationing, people that were kids at the time etc .

There's also going to be a little swing dancing, 40's style refreshments, and mock air raids . Gonna be fun ^^

I'm hoping to take some pictures during the event, I'll be sure to share :)

We have snow here on May Day..... I am glad we decided to do an indoor garden this year.

Oh my God. The 5 minute walk from the underground station to my flat just took me 40 minutes. There were 7 live acts along the way and lots of non-live music, as well as activists for LGBT Arab rights, Communism and Anarchy and against Mediaspree (a company that's trying to privatise our shores), Fascism (Radio Antifascista has a huge stage), government, capitalism and rude hand gestures.

And people sitting on trees right in front of my house.

And BBQs.

And one protest by the Turkish Communist Party (the main protest starts in half an hour).
