Dear friends, comrades and loiterers
It’s First Sunday this Sunday and so please come and join us for a Summertime loiter.
Our manifesto states “the streets belong to everyone and we want to reclaim them for play and revolutionary fun” and right now that feels more important that ever.
The challenge a loiterer set us was to think about change so we’ll be returning to the scene of previous explorations to see what has been going on....
Find us 2pm at Cutting Room Square in Ancoats on Sunday August 4th.
For those who wish to join us for the first time or just fancy a refresher here's some more information about how we walk together:
Our wanders are always free and everyone is welcome.
The pace and direction is set by participants on the day according to their needs and desires. We move through the city together so please come prepared to navigate the urban environment. Don’t forget sunscreen / water / woollies / whatever you feel are comfy shoes (delete as appropriate to you)
This is NOT a guided tour but a psychogeographical exploration and experiment in creative walking and a critical conversation with our streets alongside interesting folk (but if you do want a critical tour there's a list of possibilities here and if there is enough interest we can sort: http://thelrm.org/events)
Please try to be punctual as we dont know where we will go and once drifting messages might get missed. I'm short with bright pink hair if you need to try and find us.
The golden (only) rule is take care of yourself, each other and all we share the streets with – and don’t be an arse.
We will walk for around 90 – 120 minutes and finish somewhere where we can have a brew and a blether sharing travellers tales.
