Georgian Fair Cockermouth 2012


 Everyone all dressed up. dancing in the streets and sunshine-a brilliant day! These pictures will enlarge if you click on them. :o)

We counted at least four Morris sides and there was also Maypole dancing and street entertainments before the parade down to the gardens for the Sedan Chair Races and musket firing.More dancing and a concert tomorrow.



Wait till the sedan chair race and I'll show you who is fastest!

WOW Rosalind, what a fantastic day you all had, wish we had something like that here (I love dressing up- maybe one day I'll post some pictures of my escapades!!)Love the idea of the 'sedan chair' race too.
