Fleetwood, Singleton & Lytham Gala's

Our first outing with Princess Molly and Co was to Fleetwood Gala



We went to Lytham the next week. When re arrived we realised we had lost the back panel of the float on the way, which was really upsetting but we throw my crochet blanket over the back and carried on.


We were more than happy though when Molly got Best Princess!


It was so funny though, as Alex was carrying a big inflatable dolphin (one of the inflatables we bought for the kids to play with on the float,he refused to leave it behind and trailed after the retinue,one they had stopped for judging he was rolling around wrestling the dolphin in front of Molly! It was cute!




Such a hot day ice creams and a go on the fair 



Singleton Gala is a very small traditional gala, a walk from one end of the road to another, just the Queens,a band and the Singleton Cloggers,plus a few in fancy dress.
Then its on to a small field with stalls like tombolas and traditional games and a few little rides.  The retinues perform May pole dancing and every year i wounder if we should try it but it looks so complicated, i imagine trying to teach children that would be a nightmare! 





 They all look so lovely, when you are making the costumes it hard to imagine what they will look like when they are all together x
