    St Davids Day

    It was St Davids Day yesterday and the annual march took place to celebrate the Patron Saint of Wales. So here a load of pics from the event. After it finished, our fiddle player in the band who also teaches Tango dancing invited us to one of her Tango partys back in town.
    It wasnt the usual early start for our adventures so we took to the bus by mid morning, to meet up with the others



    Its a long walk, so we took on fuel at a Lloyds/Wetherspoons garage


    Then we headed to the start of the march.


    There were bands tuning up


    And people arriving in all types o fashion to celebrate ....
