Hello dear friends,

Nice short one this time. Observer & Guardian journalists are striking again this week all day on Thursday and Friday 12th and 13th of December - very well supported by readers and other notable celebrities of respected stature.

If you want to and are able to, you are once again warmly invited to join them outside the Guardian offices, (90 York Way, London N1 9GU). Last week there was a tremendous atmosphere over the two days. And doggies. And cake.

Thank you once more for your support

Steve
