<blockquote><p>“If there were water…<br />
If there were only water amongst the rock…<br />
If there were the sound of water only<br />
TS Eliot, The Wasteland<br />
The Walbrook River was one of the largest and most important rivers in London. A Roman river, the Walbrook takes us back to ancient London, when south of the river was a group of islands, and much of what we now understand as this city was more marsh than land.<br />
The Walbrook has been lost for over 5 centuries. With the help of a dowser, artist Amy Sharrocks has re-mapped this river, and is attempting to reclaim this great body of water with a huge public walk along its course.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Amy Sharrocks has re-mapped the ancient buried  <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walbrook">Walbrook River </a>from its source in Islington its mouth at the River Thames.  Participents are asked to wear blue and be llosely tied at the waist, the idea being that this will be a process of re remembering the boy of water using a body of blue people!!!</p>
<p>A lovely Idea, I really hope they get a good turn out…</p>

<p>He added later &#8220;I was in the vicinity. I had to get away from the main area as it was getting very heated indeed. I could just about see what was going on. Some people were covered in blood&#8230;. Felt like a horror movie. Some of the protesters were throwing things at the police therefore delaying medical attention to the dying man &#8211; Police version: natural causes!! I am shocked&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;From the bringers of the Undie 500, International Optimism Day , and Happy Wednesdays</p>
<p> Group aim to set new “Conga Line World Record” in support of Red Nose Day<br />

Optimists to raise money by dancing through central London</p>
<p>On Red Nose Day, Friday 13th March, a group of Optimists Society members will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for a Conga Line, by distance travelled. They’ll be doing it to raise money for Comic Relief, get some exercise, have fun and cheer up Londoners along the 17km route. </p>
<p> \Its not to late to take part mail  James @ &#8211; <a href="james@eternaloptimist.net">james@eternaloptimist.net</a><br />
 The attempt has already been “accepted as a New Record Category” by Guinness World Records, who await details of a “Suitable Claim”. Society members will use Guinness standard rules for endurance dance routines. Bringing together a lead “Conga” and 10 team members to follow. Of course the public will also be welcome to join at the back wherever they like along the route.<br />
The route takes in many of Londons top tourist sites. It will start in London Bridge, take in the sights of the Southbank, head past Comic Relief’s offices on Embankment then head up through Westminster into the Royal Parks, through St James Park, Green Park, Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens turning down Notting Hill to Shepherds Bush, through the new Westfield Shopping Centre and ending at BBC Television Centre in the early evening. The proposed distance will be 17km. It will take an estimated 5 hours to complete. Though we might continue to conga into the night if people sponsor us to&#8230; </p>
