Making our new Home feel like Home

It came up in our meeting this morning that our new home was beginning to get a little dirty and less pleasant to live in, the idea of getting a vacuum cleaner was placed to the group. Two hours later, look what we have;



A few hours after that, a nice and clean home and lecture theater for all of us. It's the little things.

We are setting ourselves up to be here for the long term so another addition to the occupation family today has been a water butt. This not only saves us a little time in walking to the toilet to collect water, but in a worst case situation will allow us to have 210 litres of water in our occupied space.


Unfortunately, the only place we could keep the water butt was right in the middle of the window at the front of our occupation, showing everyone who walks past that we ARE here for the long term and will not leave until our demands are met.

  1. Well done, and keep it up! I'm just sad I can't get down from Scotland through the snow yet to offer my support in person.
