Dear Noam,
Thanks for the photo. Sad to say, I look nothing 1____ I did in the seventies! I had considerably 2___
a hair in those hippy days and I'm 3___ lot fatter now, too!
But, as you suggested, I’m 4___ bit as determined as I was then and I’m still organising, though I find it a 5___ deal harder than it used to be. We tried to put together a workers’ forum last year but barely 6___
workers came. It’s just getting more and 7___, difficult to interest people in political issues. The harder
you try, 8___ fewer people show up. Maybe it's because the younger generation have so much; they are
9___ near as engaged as we were. To be honest, I’m a 10___ fed up with banging my head against a brick wall. But I guess that’s what it takes to change society.
Best wishes, Walter
Miles
