    I apologise for the lack of photos,I have a very bad male head cold and its so cold and windy its a shame because it has cut the crowds down and they didn't like yours truly sneezing all over everyone,so I didn't stay very long;)

      Thanks for the (as always) great photos Woo. It looks a merry festival despite the weather.
      I've been to the Dickens festival in Rochester years ago. They always seem to put on a good show :)

            The crowds do look a little thin on the ground in comparison to other occasions - but, as you say, the weather will affect that.
            Glad you were able to get some photo's woo and hope you feel more yourself soon :grphg:
