Title: It was old, and it was fecking shite
Post by: Nearly Sane on June 21, 2023, 04:19:21 PM
Oh what a joy! I'll be cut off in my house while idiots do this. Happy for them to march but would be better if they didn't stop all deliveries to me. Could march around the pitch at Ibrox.

I'm reasonably sure that, whilst interesting, that wasn't the link you intended to post with that comment?

I wonder what the effect would be if a large group of people coincidentally 'misinterpreted' an 'Orange March' to be something akin to la Tomatina (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Tomatina) and started joining in by throwing fruit at the participants?

Given that crossing the road will be stopped by the marchers with violence and the police will turn a blind eye, not sure that it's a sensible protest.

And there was me cursing the Bristol 10k/half marathon because it traps me for about half a day.

Does it include people singing about being up to their knees in your blood?

Most of the runners don't have the breath to spare for singing.
