> Hey everyone
> So it seems -after some discussion -to be best if we meet up before  
> the
> march with the 'aviation block'. Various groups seem to be meeting
> together to form this block- including Sipson folk- so it seems
> appropriate for us to show support too.
>
> At the initial meet up we can make sure everyone one who wants a  
> pack of
> climate camp flyers to hand out has some. Then each person can make  
> their
> own decision as to whether they want to march in a block or  
> disseminate
> through out the crowd. To get rid of all the flyers we will need some
> people who are totally committed to handing out flyers every minute  
> they
> are there!
>
> Find full details in an email sent to the Airport Watch mailing  
> list bellow.
>
> Look forward to seeing you there.
