Good on you for your participation. I don't understand why education seems to be one of the biggest targets for budget cuts. It seems like the pigs at the trough in administration would rather the children and the teachers and the whole future suffer than they give up some of their own prosperity.<br /><br />I'm glad the march was not as wild and as filled with violence as portrayed on the media. Cool to know you are so close to all those landmark places in London.Leeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655189620056032790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527249508675423548.post-64319866586013608262011-03-27T08:27:59.496-07:002011-03-27T08:27:59.496-07:00Well done!

I think that the number of protesters is equivalent to the population of the entire state of Wyoming! Amazing that is was so peaceful- there are always a handful of jerks- no matter where humanity gathers. Glad you are OK.Linda Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03070050388987072100noreply@blogger.com
