| A quickly arranged homecoming parade down Church Street... some of the crew in their Sunday best, Naval Honour Guard, followed by some friends and family. |
 |
| Past the Church of Dagon. Only Acolytes and worshippers/church members being allowed inside the church the procession walked past. However, the priests and priestesses stood outside and cheered the seamen, some of whom were actually church members... In Newhaven, the Church of Dagon is counted by many to be the Seamen's Church. |
 |
| The procession headed for St Catherine's where the vicar plus representatives from both the monastery and nunnery waited to welcome them into the church. |
 |
| Apart from the family and friends following the crew other people had been bussed in and many were already in the church. |
 |
| Of course, the trouble with open rifts is that anything might pass through... |
A wonderful parade but looks like the Green Meanies may be about to rain on it.....
ReplyDeleteWell, parades are very useful for that sort of thing.
DeleteI do like a cliffhanger, splendid!

I do like to set things up like that if I can. This one just naturally lends itself to it.
DeleteSplendid stuff…
ReplyDeleteThere always seems to be a bunch of slimy green gate crashers determined to ruin a good party/parade…
All the best. Aly
Sadly, this is true. Though not always green.
