Police, police, fat and some rather trim police. putting lots of people into
paddywagons.even a couple of mounted police.lots of television people filming arrests.took
police approx 1hr to turn of electronic music-they towed it away.then 2+ hrs of drumming
and whistling.small but effervescent crowd partied till dark, gave ourselves a big hug and
went home!it may have been a small scene compared to london or birminham however the
passion and excitement were incredibly present and the interference from police may have
been iritating and unnecessary it was still an adrenalin buzz and it will never deter us
from future events. That's all for now it's a bit jumbled but so are we
