The Parade

 

Lots of hard work preparing the float for the carnival!

 

We started our blank canvas at Priory farm in the hot sunshine.

My sister left some large trefoils and Rainbow Rabbit to help decorate the float.

Sue and Jo are fighting with a parachute to try and fix it underneath the roof of the trailer.

Having moved everything into the shade, we carried on with decorating.

Helen is attaching some animals in a cage to one of the uprights.

Guiding banners on, plus a jungle table cloth cut in half, flowers around the top edge.

The veiw from the front of the tractor in the barn, still decorating !

Rainbow Rabbit attached to the frontof the trailer.

Banners galore, put up with help from Frank, Mark and Sue.

Greenary added around the top edge by Helena, Jo, Sue and Helen.

Afew more flowers plus a palm tree, phew its hot work.

Now you can just about see the thatched roof and all the flowers around the edge of it.and a thatched roof
