Plan yer own Torch protests using this easy to access route map ----

http://torchrelaybeijing2008.cn/en/journey" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

And even if u cant get a flight to the city of yer choice at least u will no where the latest
evening news is coming from on any particular day.

Warning - not a great site for finding any in depth info on Tibet.

and for those who r following this gripping story i can exclusively reveal that the Torch spent last nite in the
Hotel Le Meridien, Windsor Place, New Delhi - presumably staying well away from the swimming pool complex.

Well its on to Bangkok @ 8am our time 2morrow (sat) morning folks so get tuned in @ breakfast to either BBC News 24 or Sky News.

And is'nt it great 2 c our very own Conall Hon Watson get to keep his enormous flag - dare i suggest the URSC find
out where he got it made as we really need a good big flag to roll along the Terrace once we get back to our winning ways.

NB - don't ever buy Shantosh products from Lt-General Watcharaphol Prasarnratchakjj.

PS - for those wanting useful links u cud try either
