CYCLE PALESTINE: CHAPTER 19 - IT DOESN’T END THERE

Talking About It
 
I carried on talking about the ride, and raised a little more money in doing so, to various groups, including
 

• Strawberry Thieves
• Three branches of Unite the Union
• Bromley Trades Council

 
Special Meeting/Attila the Stockbroker
 
We arranged a special local event at New Cross Learning to give a slide show and talk about the ride to local Stop the War, CND and Friends of Palestine and other friends, with food and entertainment.
 
I asked the poet and musician Attila the Stockbroker if he would be able to provide some of the latter, and he not only agreed, but decided that he would cycle to New Cross from Shoreham on the Sussex coast, on what turned out to be one of the hottest days of the year, to raise more money for MAP.
