Watching the final preparations at the start in Dudley Road at Hastings, East Sussex.

Having fun and enjoying posing with their guitars on the We will rock you carnival float.

The best costume in the carnival, it looked like a tall Frankenstein carrying a coffin with a scary looking zombie in it.

I thought I was a tall person! I would love to have a go, but I have enough trouble balancing on my real legs!

People marching for the Hands of the Conquest campaign, trying to stop changes at our local (Hastings) hospital.

Nice outfit, I really like the orange feathers, maybe I should get some.

A huge white flying rocking horse, that's something you don't see every day.

Now a giant mouse on wheels in the carnival, maybe I need to go back on my medication! 8o)

Kids on one of the carnival floats collecting money and waving at the camera.

A woman in a belly dancing style outfit taking part in Hastings Carnival.

Hmmm, giant person with a big head, huge hands and alien antennae on their head, Hastings is a strange place!

A man collecting money and giving me a nice smile for the camera.

A beautiful carnival queen, I am not sure that I could cope with being paraded around like that on a carnival float.

Drummers from one of the local bonfire societies.

A confident looking pirate woman and a not so confident looking pirate boy on this carnival float.

Busty women in tight shorts walking with a monster truck, I get the feeling that Club XS may not be the best place for a quiet night out in Hastings! 8o)
