>    The next meeting of our Manchester Group will be on Tuesday March7th at 
> the Friends meeting House. We are still experiencing some difficulty in 
> obtaining a convenient city centre venue at a community price, which is why 
> I've had to put it back yet another week from our regular date. 
>    {Ask Ewa if you want} a report of the national meeting of 
> Climate Campaigning groups which we attended in London on February 11th. 
> We will be discussing any matters which arise from this report, so if you 
> come on March 7th, bring a copy with you. It'll make the discussion easier.
>   The purpose of our meeting on March 7th will be to really get stuck into 
> developing activities in the coming months. Our stall outside the RESPECT 
> rally yesterday was a success. We met several people who want to keep in 
> touch, discussed Climate change, sold badges and books, gave away 
> leaflets, postcards & posters. We can easily repeat this sort of activity at 
> other functions. Wherever people are fighting for a better world we want to be 
> there, so think about any events that you know about where we might be 
> welcomed to put up our stall & spread our message.
>    We need some ideas for a major spring day of action. Something 
> newsworthy if possible. Any ideas? Bring them on March 7th.
