The blog entries, like so much about this weekend, are going to play on the idea of making things history. Tonight I'm definitely making the 'add correct term here' approach history.
I've now arrived safely in Edinburgh after an inevitably delayed train. We had announcements about the protests and I was particularly glad that I had booked first class. Oh the joy of being efficient and arranging such things in April or May. It did mean that my efficiency cost me the option of spending time at the w*rk do this evening in St. John's Church. I arrived just in time for wine and a little socialising plus a lot of discussion about our recently completed online game of mafia.
Edinburgh is definitely preparing for the worst. Shops are boarded up and buses have been redirected. Campaigners of all shapes, sizes and types are already here. The station is changing the way it works for about a week and the shops that aren't boarded up have lots of white things in the window.
I should be up and about nice and early tomorrow. If people are going and really want to contact me, my number for the weekend (only) is 07913 613499. I'll be in the contempl8ion zone for some of the time. I should also pay attention to the wiblog phone number so I can update while I'm at it.
It's going to be fun, especially as I had to go to the doctors this morning to get something removed from the sole of my foot and it's still not happy. I did get sufficiently lectured but the moral of the story is not go wandering round a city with no shoes on. You might get splinters. Oops.
Anyway, I'm sure it will be fun and will update as soon as I can. I am also keeping a vague track about how many white bands people are wearing. The winner seems to be on about 10!
