Box Wars! Fight or be Recycled!

On Saturday Josh and i and the one now know as "The Dead thing" attend a lovely little gathering called "Box Wars!", Box Rac edtion. The object was for a crowd of people to go to Edinbrughs famous Arthur's seat, in Holyrod park and watch a smaller group of people ride Cardboard creations down a steep hill. The term getting there is half the fun has never been more true. Parading the Corrragated wonders from their birth place to the fields of dissmemberment took almost an hour and gethered a large following. The tourists were confused and the locals loved it.

As we arrived at Aurthers seat the park service swarmed in with jeeps and told us we did not have the correct permissions to perform such brutal acts on recycling in a protected park. We pointed out thet thir jeeps has just chewed up the very same protected landscape just to inform us that we were harming the enviroment, but it was to no avail. Evidently packing tape is not match for red tape.

Talk of revolution and arrest floated in the air until we decided to switch to a park that was thought to be un-pratroled by our enviromentaly challenged park wardens. The entire crowd trekked over to Calton Hill (45 more mins) and then the festivites commenced! Gravity, Potatos and People, oh my!
