Bun Festival blues, update

Lunchtime, Sunday: 32C + 79 per cent humidity. The procession through the village officially starts at 2pm, but I've had cymbals a-crashin', horns a-blowin', and drums a-thumpin' going past my door for the last couple of hours. That, and sun hats and umbrellas a-plenty. Major crowd. I am not going to even bother trying to get to the waterfront to see the procession. Instead, I will watch with the cognoscenti at Mrs Chu's 7-Up bar. If I can get there. Procession photos here.
