Around 100 people turned up to a public meeting called in Edinburgh today for people who want to do something to support the Burmese people and increase pressure on the military junta. This will start with a vigil at 3pm on Saturday 6 October 07 at the tree planted for Dau Aung San Suu Kyi in Princes Street Gardens by the cuckoo clock.Our children knew about the meeting and said I should take some ribbons to sell so 'people remember the monks'. I took and sold 20 ribbons and was overwhelmed by the generousity of folk who gave £63. This money is for our school in Hle Bee and I can't wait to tell the children of Forthview tomorrow and the children of Hle Bee in an email - right now!
See you on Saturday.
