    Red March from Samut Prakan to Rally in Bangkok

    I am at the old prison in Paknam. About 8 coaches here waiting to leave for Bangkok. We will be joining the convoy too. Everyone will meet at Bang Na intersection at 9 am.

    I will be posting live updates and pictures to Twitter. Maybe a moderator or someone could help repost them here plus any other news for today.

    We are at ekamai sky train with about 100 motorcycles waiting for the red shirts to catch us up. Many are walking to Bangkok from Samut prakan. Very hot. Check my Twitter feed for live pictures. The parade stretches down Sukhumwit as far as the eye can see.

    The red shirts from Samut Prakan have been walking in their thousands into Bangkok. We have just passed MBK and Siam Square nearly 5 hours after the start. Thousands more from Ayutthaya are coming by boat. Looks like there will be at least 500,000 tonight at the rally site.

    Richard does this mean your wearing a red shirt for this report, or are you just a reporter doing your job.

    I am wearing a blue shirt and Gor is wearing a green one. Easy to spot us when we went up on the stage in front of 500,000!
