This is an annual event, and I've been to it a couple of times in the past. What was done to Hiroshima is an event worth commemorating, as well as showing opposition to the latest war the American government and its British lapdogs have dragged us into, and as long as the speakers don't go on too long the speeches aren't usually too boring. There's a great view from the top of the Law, inland to the Sidlaws, on the other side to the Discovery and the Tay bridges and out over the Tay to Fife, and with Broughty Castle clearly visible and Tentsmuir Forest and out to the open sea beyond. The trouble is, I'm getting old. I don't mind doing a bit of hill-walking, as long as I can do it at my own pace; but, when it's as part of a demonstration, you are more or less forced to try to keep up with other folk. I think the organisers would get more folk taking part if they were to make sure the front of the "march" strolls off up the hill at a more leisurely pace.
