the 3rd of the 3, a lot of work went into these floats not only decorating them, but borrowing lorries, still the kids lapped it up, you wouldnt be able to do it now, probably need seat belts and booster seats and such like.

Your right about the seat belts aitch,when I was in the May Queen Retinue in 1948/9 we were in the carnival on the back of a lorry and one of the girls fell off.Thankfully we were still on the Rec.and she didn't hurt herself.
