15 people turned out to support Owen today at Cloverhill.

People from around the country continue to travel to Limerick to visit or vigil. Considering the cold and the time involved it is a good sign of solidarity.

Family and friends continue to visit Owen and on Wednesday he will receive a visit from Denis Halliday, former Asst/Deputy. Secretary General of the UN (or whatever the no.2 honcho is caled).

Owen has expressed his appreciation for all the support and it is good to see people not only watching Owen's back, but continuing to stand up to crude attempts to stifle protest at the airport, as weapons troops and war-mongers like Rumsfeld continue to pass through.
