Me too! It’s devilish music and I’m a bit scared of the conductor who has a fantastic ear…
But it should be fun.

Enjoy your day @cardibach. It sounds wonderful. I wish I could play an instrument. My attempts at violin in Y6-Y8 were painful to listen to. Have a safe, fantastic day in Newport.

In case it’s helpful to anyone planning to go into cities/towns over the weekend

I'm so sorry about your situation @Evenstar, but if my conspiracy theory, sucked down the rabbit hole relative is right, there won't be any trouble. Apparently they are a bunch of peaceful patriots who are aghast at the violence shown by the actors bussed in with the camera crews. They apparently only behave like shits while the cameras are filming, then the camera crews get the actors back on the bus, leaving the poor bewildered patriots to carry the can.

If anyone has any idea on how I counter this, that would be helpful.

Perhaps ask your relative to take some pictures of these buses?

I really feel like I might counter protest.
I'm so angry about the far right resurgence so doing something could help.

🙈
I'm so sorry. I don't know what to suggest

OMG I’ve spent the whole day forgetting I’ve got that! Is loss of memory one of the symptoms? I’ve also had two packets of crisps today. Is gluttony, also?

You managed to sneak crisps from your captors? Do share with us how you achieved that.

"That is nice dear" ?

Sorry, no idea how you can counter it

Well I did reverse psychology and used my charm, voluptuous bosom and cheeky smile to make my captor enthralled by me.

To date, I’ve had a roast dinner cooked for me (including all the clearing up) cup of tea made for me and I’m lying on my sofa with the bifolds open, planning a holiday for next year.

I’ve had the same captor for 38 years and they haven’t managed to get away 😂

Oh dear. I thought we’d seen the end of this shite, in the 70s/80s.

I love this so much ❤

But don't call them far right

Just time for a reprise of this one for the "take are cuntry back" mob...

Love this, outside a mosque in Liverpool tonight

And this one

I can well imagine posters from this thread doing this

Oh yes. Most definitely.

Love it.

Don’t mess with a grandma.

And don’t mess with a woman who’s been a teacher for 30 years, eh ladies!

Basically my mum, proud single parent (1970's), mature student (Willy Russell told her he wrote educating Rita about women like her and gave her a hug!), Scouser, lefty, ex teacher and epic nan - often found at anti Nazi protests

She sound like a bloody kickass angel.

@Evenstar is everything ok at your son’s shop?

She is! Even got a British Citizenship award (would never have accepted an OBE or anything related to the royals) for her work setting up after school clubs to feed local families - set up playgroups, ran many homeless shelters over Christmas, always taught us to be fair, to respect others, to challenge all the 'ism's' - a trait inherited from my equally awesome grandparents - a baton I am passing to my 3.

In the 1970's she collected a huge number of Robinsons Golly's - realising how vile they where in the 80's they now reside in the Liverpool Museum of Slavery!

@Evenstar I hope things are okay x
