A Very Pleasance Day Out
July 28, 2011
On Saturday the 16th of July the Mischief Makers set up camp in the Pleasance Forecourt as part of the Big Day Out.
The Rain poured down but we made merry with the resident musicians and puppeteer.
Come rain or shine you can’t keep a peg doll down, they were out in their many colours brandishing banners such as ‘Sisters need Love’ and ‘Zombies aren’t all bad’. . .take note Islington!
Feeling very pleased with her slogan ‘More Butterflies’.
Despite the rain we had many makers of mischief sheltering in our camp.
The Big Day Out was a soggy yet fun event! The rain simply didn’t stop the young people of Islington and beyond from making beautiful placards and pegs, and having a shout about what really mattered to them. We had many brilliant, kooky slogans such as ‘Invent a flying Suit’, ‘Jump on Beds’ and ‘Eat Flowers’. Our planned march became a ‘Protest Sit In’ at the British Summer as none of the placards were dry enough to brandish. . .!
Big Thanks to Candida and Ant at The Pleasance for inviting us out!
