Shell can run, run, run but can't hide !

Today, for seven back-straining hours, Shell to Sea activists toughed it out with the inclement weather and pneumonia to bear witness to the Five, now in day 58 of their obscene incarceration, garnering rakes of petition signatures, dispensing leaflets and outrage to the good people who flocked to our info table to similiarly bear witness.

The day was capped with an hour's picket/blockade of the Statoil Servive Station at the nether end of Bothar Mhor which drew the mild attention of two Gardai and an avalanche of supportive car honks and power salutes. We'll be out again tomorrow and Saturday and and and.
Today's crew !.

Gound Demon Day for contemptible Shell; the same wall was hit by graffiti artists two weeks ago, Lady Macbeth fashion, Shell tried to expunge its guilt wire brush, but, God bless 'em, they were enlightened they can wire brush and run but they can't hide.
