I was standing in the Coffee Cart queue when I clocked the Terror's headline about the rail strike during World Youth Day. DEVIL'S WORK, it said. I actually laughed out loud. Repeatedly.
I think it's weird that none of the posters, banners, etc, etc, etc, even mention what World Yoof Day is. No mention of Christianity, let alone the particular variety of Christianity it is. Weird.
Oh, and nothing about it in the UK, BTW. Might get a small mention in the 'funnies' section with the Pope turning up, but then GWB's visit didn't get a mention. Then again, GWB's visit to London last month didn't get a mention in the German media.

Thanks, Kate! World Youth Day has always seemed a little too Stepford for my tastes.
Peace,
