[Committee] Publicity

[Marc Kaufmann]

Hi everyone,

this is just to let you know about tomorrow's banner making session:

King's College are rather disorganised and don't even know who I have to ask
permission to get the art's room. So we'll go for Pembroke College Art's
room, but unfortunately I cannot book it. You just turn up and get the keys.
So the plan for tomorrow is :

- Meet up at 4pm in King's bar to discuss certain remaining issues and then
at 4.30 we will go to Pembroke if I managed to get the keys (before the
meeting); Do bring along any bedsheets etc that might be useful for banner
making. We'll also hand out the posters to people who haven't got them yet
by then

The only other thing is: keep talking to people about the protest and the
panel discussion and invite more people on facebook!

That's it from me, see you tomorrow,

Marc
