HappyMaz Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Me! I just moved my FSF badge to my other jacket. Look out for me. I'm the elderly grey haired lady with a green jacket and a purple-ish scarf with green and black circles on it. Black trousers, black circles under my eyes. I like to be co-ordinated! I wonder if we'll find each other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots bickering and point scoring, We have to keep on so that everyone knows what we are about. My first ever protest ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Oh Sue I wish you'd come and said hello. I would have loved to have gone into the HoP but didn't really know what was going on or feel brave enough just to tag onto a group of people I didn't really know. It was hard to know who was who (ie who was on the organising committee and so on). All in all I guess I just felt way out of my comfort zone, and a bit (lot) unconfident. Next time I'll definitely get organised and find someone to go with. I spoke to some really passionate people though - what was great about the day was that it was a chance for everyone to share their own personal ethos and philosophies about why they do what they do. And I also spotted Dame Tanni Grey Thompson coming out of the House of Commons, and asked the lady I was with to give her a leaflet, which she gracefully accepted and looked very interested in. So maybe I played a small part in getting the message across! All in all a positive day (although just reading back what I've written makes me sound like a bit of a sap), but it did make me realise how politically inactive I've been, despite all my moaning about the state of the nation lately. So I guess I'm going to have to do something about that, really... I'll be there on the next one, and next time we'll have to organise a proper meet up. I'm a lot braver when I'm amongst friends! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
