Hi,

No major objections but a few things:

1) no picture, would be a shame to have a featured item without one

2) I think we should check with Marky B first

3) We really need to write up a feature ourselves on all of this on Indymedia.  One on PC Watson but I am wating on the Common Place.  If someone wants to start something on Crabgrass please go for it.  It should / could be linked with the Common Place article that we have started about the council demanding monies.

Cheers,

nab
