I wish I could have been with you.

That's pretty weather you had. We had sleet, snow, rain and sunshine, often mixed together, today.

The holly berries go nicely with the dandelion, by the way.

To quote Chill Wills' character, Drago, in McLintock!: People...people...people!

Nice pics.

It was a good day for the parade. Much better weather than last year. It's always a lot of fun and I look forward to it each year.

In addition to Mael, Geoff, and Elliottrohan68, I managed to see Orvice (who was marching with the Appins with me), rdjmchris, and I think Ozark Ridge Rider, who came up to me after the parade.

Great set of pictures, Ern. How I wish that we had something (or anything) similar here in the UK.

Regards

Chas

Man, I really wanted to be there this year.

Super pics Ern.
Makes me envious.
Our local Christmas lights parade should have taken place yesterday but it was cancelled. The lights are not ready to be switched on yet, some people are blaming it on a shortage of tradesmen others blame the winter weather. Come off it folks, its December so the weather can be expected to be wintry, I'm sure the parade has gone ahead before on much colder days. I also read in the local press that there were "Health and Safety Issues" against allowing children to take part in the parade, I hope that proves to be an unfounded rumour.
