Stromness Shopping Week fancy dress parade

At the end of Shopping Week there is a fancy dress parade, which is a lot of fun!  Very conveniently for me the parade passed right by the end of our road, so on Saturday I met up with friends to watch the floats go past.  Sadly, the weather had changed from glorious to definitely-not-so-glorious by Saturday so we got rather wet and cold whilst we were standing about waiting.  Still, I'm glad we made the effort to go ~ it's good to support one's local community and you do have to be prepared to brave the weather up here, be it rain, wind or shine.....or all three in one day LOL

Here are a few photos of the parade.  I should think the folk taking part were pretty damp and cold at times, but even so they all seemed to enjoy themselves 😊
