Winners once more
SEA once again joined the fun that is the Sudbury Carnival, a much better supported procession this year. Floats with Carnival Queens had travelled from as far afield as Dover, London, Aylesham, Witham, Braintree and Mersea Island to name just a few.
The weather was brilliant, the sun shone (but not too hot as some characters, like the poor fireman dressed as an elephant, were rather heavily clad).
We were rewarded for our hard work by winning 1st prize, very much to the delight of all: Maria Lloyd and cock linnet (Anne), Troubadour (Carole), Minstrel AlanaDale (Janet), Flapper (Barbara), Travelling Player (Liz), Sailor with hornpipe (Fiona), Sue Ayres with sign, Choirboy (Sue), Beethoven (Jeremy) and Vera Lynn (Penny) – see below.
A good day was had by all.
