have been told it's around 11.00 / 11.30 start of procession

i'll keep my fingers crossed for you then while i am at work then :)

why thanks Mand..

i to have to go into work 06.00 start (shudder!!) do a bit, then around 8 ish nip Trailer over to let them do float...back to work finish off... have bite to eat.. back over to pick float up around 10.30... ready for the off.. :)

i'll try and blag some photos.. :)

Good luck... and yep please dont forget the piccies :D

Hope it stays dry for you all
look forward to seeing pics

well... the rain started at 07.45 and stopped around 12.30.. at one point i thought they would stop the event... the west park was water logged and the floats were diverted to a road adjacent to the park.. where i took the 2 photos.... i must say the weather was rotten.. but the public came out in the hundreds so it wasn't a total disaster!

reet time for a cuppa...

Brill... glad it wasn't a complete wash out :)

Just looked at the piccies.. the float looked very pretty... and at least it was covered so one hell of a lot drier that an open top lorry !

Ta Mand.. yes think the kids did well under the circumstances !! (weather)

i to have been busy with the prepping of the shunt motor this past 2 months tarting it up... it was the oldest truck on the procession.. :)

Awww bless, well you did a very good job on it by the look of it :)

thanks.. I'll see what the press say.. before i go tap the MD up for more funding on my shunt mota for next year... :)

Good idea :D
