Infamy,infamy,they've all got it in for me - Kenny Williams

What's the worst case arrest scenario? we postulated.

Gettin arrested on a friday means your in 'til Monday came the reply.

You'd be a bit of a wee daftie to get pulled on a friday I thought to myself, what with my train back to London leaving Manchester 2pm monday (after the Climate Camp Meeting).

Diary

Tim and Patrick formed the advance party travelling up with the Pedals soundsystem from Lancaster to Glasgow on Sunday November 8th. They got a lift with some of the Seize the Day crowd, staying with them overnight in central Glasgow. Amazingly, Pedals and the tandem fitted into a Ford Mondeo (saloon not estate!). Pedals supported Seize the Day's blockading on Monday and Tuesday. Monday early morning saw a confused convoy of vehicles out to Faslane then dawn lock-ons at North and South gates. The band played a great gig at the North Gate on Monday afternoon. The following day the music, and lock-ons, continued, culminating in a final action during the afternoon shift change with Shannon serenading Theo over Pedals as he got carted away by the cops. In the midst of this, Tim got arrested for taking a photograph in the road, a ridiculous arrest that seemed to have been ordered over police radio net by visiting senior cops venting their frustration.

OTHER TIPS OUTSIDE OF INCARCERATION

1. If considering using a vehicle to transport locked-on crew,be aware that Bristol's driver was arrested and they had to pay £200+ to get vehicle back.

2. Play the great new 'Can I snag a tea bag on the razor wire' game.

TOP TIPS FROM MY INCARCERATION IN DUMBARTON POLICE STATION

1. Try to get a cell on right hand side as they have natural light.

2. Take own toothpaste-last known of here 6 months ago.

3. If you want company and/or people to conspire/contemplate with ask if you can go 3 to a cell. 2 is not allowed by 'house rules' - you may have an unrefereed argument.
