and the band played on

Too wet to sit down

hoods up, umbrellas at the ready

but the band played on

the tug of war . . .

. . . tugged

the maypole dancers pranced

and danced

the coconut shy got bombarded

sword dancers shuffled by

no-one braved the soggy sponge

but a good old British time was had by one and all

Grenoside Gala at it's best
