An instrumental in waltz time written shortly after the eviction of the Fairmile camp in Devon in 1997. I got hand -fasted there in 1995, and we lived there for most of the next 2 years, building tree defences and digging habitable(?) tunnels. Our monumental efforts were rewarded with the most drawn out eviction of a single protest camp up to that time, a whole week. This tune spoke where words (for once) failed me.
