Carnival continued (including photographs)


Hastings Old Town Carnival 2015 kicked off yesterday...  


... effectively, with the 34th Tug-o-War! Captains being called over before the start, above.


The first 2 teams to compete, though Team McKinnie eventually won the men's event.


Women competed too, all's fair in love and war...


... and Anchor Pink were the eventual winners in their event.


My first pint of the day at the Dolphin, now with bunting adorning the exterior! 


The bar, now looking more like it, just before the nearly beach concert started.


The Coronation of the Carnival Queen will be held, here at Winkle Island, at 2.30pm today, followed by a procession, of course.    


Certainly an eclectic mix of music at The Nearly on the Beach Concert... 


Still early doors, but lovely weather and quite a few in the audience already.


I'm standing in front of the bar whilst taking this photograph, where I enjoyed a rather good pint or two (the Pirate's Gold is pretty damn good!).  


As I said, an eclectic mix of music yesterday, and TODAY too, from 2pm. So, for today's events, please see the website, and enjoy yourselves! 

Thanks to Facebook for a couple of these photographs, cheers!
