mayday
what an amazing time! think this year has got to be one of the best. headed into padstow at 8 on saturday, to go up and see stefan before i went into town and already there had been loads of flowers left there for him, it was nice to see that no one had forgotten about him. once i got into town, i went and joined the child's oss for an hour, until it went in. after that i bumped into some mates, and we went and got a pasty then headed to the pub to start the day off lol. as soon as our oss was out we set off dancing around town, drinks in hands, celebrating our tradition about why we do this every year. not long after this i saw mum, and my aunts, one of them hasn't been able to come to mayday in 9 years, because she has been living up county. we made this year a special one, even tho it wasn't the same, we still we all out! i followed the oss all the way up glyn road, round towards the old peoples homes, where we popped in to see all them, and show that there is still a massive community where we all look after each other. we were so lucky that it didnt rain, for nearly the whole afternoon which was good, but what was better was that when it did rain, it cleared out nearly all the emits so we could actually follow the oss without having to try and push our way through wave after wave of them. by this time, we all had a lot to drink, but was still going strong. the evening was very good, met some mates i hadnt seen in a very long time, so went round the fair with them for a bit, and went on the river dancer, which was very funny considering that some of them were drunk lol and that it seemed to just keep speeding up. the farewell was moving, just couldn't help but think about stefan, but we all knew he was there with us. after the oss had gone in, we went pub, and had like a Lindsey family meet up in the pub, we basically took over the whole pub with the amount of us that was there, some of them i didn't even know, yet they are family lol. was just a shame that the day had to end. but it was still nevertheless an amazing day! OSS OSS, WEE OSS!
