cycle Palestine: chapter 2 - shaking the bucket

 
Shaking the Bucket
 
Here’s a couple of the West Midlands contingent fundraising for their trip in a local supermarket.

Other riders took it on themselves to accost any passing Celebrity (it wasn’t me, but it was someone from south London).

I took a slightly more political approach.  Here I am meeting my MP, Vicky Foxcroft, who had previously been to Palestine herself with Unite the Union.  She was able to tell me what I should be prepared for.

I am not a religious person, but always wanting to make connections in support of Palestine. I asked if I could come down to Lewisham Mosque to get a photo with the Imam, but he suggested that I said some words and had a bucket collection.
 
So I had to come up with something off the cuff.  I also hadn’t chosen my socks very carefully.

At the end, the bucket collection raised over £400.
