I've still to get my costume finished and am wondering how many layers can I wear, as I'll be outside all the time, until about 10 in the evening.

Hope we are going to see some pics Perpy.

Wrap up well pet.

[Perpetua]

Not sure about piccies of me specifically Kenny, as I only
take gargoyle inspired photo's . . . but the bloomers should help keep a few draughts out.

If I don't post Saturday, you'll know I turned into an icicle!

Good luck and be snug, Perpy

How nice to have a male voice choir - we had some lovely ones down in Cornwall in my youth, you can't beat 'em.

I suspect I'll shall resemble a Victorian Barrel Organ by the time I've piled the layers on.

It's normally a fab local event, loads of atmosphere and sets the scene for the start of Crimbo festivities a treat!

The mulled wine isn't bad either.

[Chrissie]

Does sound like a brilliant event Perpy But you really are going to need a lot of layers

[magicma]

Perpy - we want - demand - photos of you in your outfit!! MM

[Hanow]

Perps - admit it hunnie - you are only going in order to watch all those chaps leaping around waving their bells!

Damm and blast you know me too well Hanow.

I shall probably start getting 'layered up' Thursday night Chris to be prepared for 6 hours outside in this weather.

I'll see what I can do MM with the photo's, I'll look on it as a Bush Tucker Trial.

I have held back from demanding pics but my cruel nature must out:

Piccies please!!!

I wore several pairs of bloomers tonight Dee.

Am still trying to edit the truly desperately horrific pictures that a friend of mine snapped . . . . although the local paper took a couple of pics of myself and one of the other girls drapped on a steam engine thing, IF I don't resemble the back end of a tram there might be a link, or not.

Meantime, was a lovely evening, about 1,000 people I reckon turned out, although the chaps say 3,000.

A local animal rescue centre, had a 'stall' they bought along 2 of the most sweet minature Shetland ponies, this is Trigger . . . .

[Scylla]

Oh how lovely, Perpy "Trigger", awww, takes me back

We will love any pics you can show us.

Thanks Scylla.

Trigger bless him, was rescued from Lanzarote, was being kept in a dog kennel . . . . such lovely natured little ponies, my friend's Irish Wolf Hounds are considerably larger than these dear animals to give an idea of size!

[Chrissie]

(((Trigger))), how awful that he was kept in a dog kennel Thank goodness he was rescued

Glad you survived the cold & it was well attended Perpy
