No riots but a little disruption!
Today is Global White Band Day and around the world people are wearing their white bands to show support for the campaign to Make Poverty History. The UK is hosting the G8 Summit in Edinburgh and members of King Edward VI Grammar School, Louth, Edward's Theatre Company showed their support by dressing in white, performing as statues. One young lady was a real traffic stopper - literally. No, Jenny, the traffic warden wasn't really booking her!!

Never heard of White Band Day. How very interesting! I like the looks of it.
The wristbands were purchasable in the OXFAM shops. Maybe you don't have one?
British town centres are cram jammed with Charity Shops such as Oxfam, Heart Research, Help the Aged, Cancer Research, etc etc - they get low rental and rates, I think.
Whether it's cos we have an eye for a bargain or can't afford new I don't know. I'd rather shop at Marshalls or Burlington Coat Co for new stuff at half the price we'd pay in the UK!
