Yo Blair! cease fire now!


On Saturday we marched from Piccadilly to the Houses of Parlimant with approximately at least 50000 people from different cultures, races and religions shouting " CEASE FIRE NOW" demonstrating against war in Lebenon and expressing their solidarity with a nation under attack with bombs and rockets.
It was disturbing for me to see a few Hezbollah flags among the demonstrantes, because in my point of view every extremist and conservative ideology should be rejected and only tolerance can lead to a peaceful world! But fortunately some of the speakers made good points including the right of existence of Israel.

For a symbolic act the "Stop the War" organisation asked demonstrants to put children shoes at the Cenotaph to protest against the killing of children .


On sunday we woke up early moring. At about 6am a taxi took us to Victoria station and there we took a coach to Liverpool. At 1pm we were at Liverpool. After having lunch and some sightseeing including the tower of Liverpool and visting the local radio station we picked up our new car, a Ford Focus Ghia which is compared to the Renault which we owned more comfortable and looks also nicer, then we went with the new car to the beach and at about 11 pm we were at home in London.
