Fancy the thought of curried chick peas garnished with anarchist beard hairs and freshly rubbed scalp flakes...

I know someone that wanted to go to this, they showed up for the meeting at Trinity but there was no one around, or at least no one recognised her as an activist and approached her to involve her.

Is it really a smart idea to have OPEN meetings at Trinity Arch if you are trying to involved new people? Its okay for working groups and so on as far as im concerned. But in terms of involving new people: how are they meant to differentiate between you lot and say two other groups of people standing around there?

the other option is pay for a room in pub, while it summer it good to meet outside

i was as i said holding an fnb flyer which if someone looked they would see
was it this week or last i was looking round for lost looking people, but yesterday i was chatting to the group of people that turned up she could have recognised that group and come over to us

hopefully we'll be doing this for a long time (thats the idea) so missing one meeting is insigificant

get her to mail fnb_dublin@yahoo.com and well fill her in

i also gave out mobile number out over the fnb list which anyone can join and could phoned that too

Hygene police doesn't want anarchist beard hairs in the food? Well, show up and contribute your expertise. Or, if you don't feel like collecting food or cooking, kick in some cash...

...or a bottle of fairy liquid?

But whatever you do, don't sit by and criticise; make it work better.

Nuff Respect to the Dublin Kids...

Belfast FNB tonight (Thur 22nd July) at 6.30-8pm outside Botanic Train Station Botanic Ave. & in the same location every second week.

Nice tip for the Dublin crew...

We set up a table & chairs with a nice table cloth & flowers last time, & played some paris cafe music. Was terribly civilised....

Since our incident with the PSNI a month ago (report in link)
we've had no more problems with the authorites & the Police Odsbus(wo)man is investigating the incident.

Hope the Guards have more sense...
