The Teddy Bears' Picnic
If you go down to the woods today
You're sure of a big surprise
If you go down to the woods today
You better go in disguise
For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain because
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic
If you go down to the woods today
You're sure of a big surprise
If you go down to the woods today
You better go in disguise
For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain because
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic
At six o'clock their mummys and daddys
will take them home to bed
Because they're tired little teddy bears

Remembering Greenham Common, 25 years later (BoingBoing)
BoingBoing has noted yet another wonderful thing - a funny, joyous reprise of the Greenham Common Occupation. It's in Flash and you will need high speed internet. To move forward in the presentation, go to the column on the left and click on the next chapter. It's a powerful, moving and funny presentation. Please set aside some time to see this.
Robert sez, "Greenham Common was the site of one of the longest anti-nuclear, anti-war protests in history, against the siting of US nuclear missiles in the UK. The site commemorates the 25th anniversary of the peace camps. These women really knew how to protest! For example they dressed up as teddy bears and covered themselves in honey so that the soldiers guarding the base didn't know what to do with themselves. The site brings together loads of interviews, archive footage, massive numbers of photos, downloadable songs, even a kids' colouring book."

A Flash program at this site shows how much of our resources are going into weapons to destroy the human race - and how misuse of wealth causes misery and poverty. Not to be missed:
