Thread Name: Folklore: Padstow May Day
Subject: RE: Folklore: Padstow May Day
Yes I do but this year my Head has called a Training Evening on May 1st so I doubt if I will get there. Be on the harbourside at about 8am to watch the kids Oss and the Colts. This is the future of May day and they deserve your support. It always makes me tearful. You need to be outside the Institute about half an hour before the Blue 'Oss comes out so by about 9.30 at the latest. As soon as that is out and gone walk down to the Golden Lion to await the Old 'Oss at 11am. Follow whichever 'Oss you want to, both if you can. See them meet under the maypole, spend the day meeting and greeting old and new friends and cry at the Farewell in the evening along with half the population of Padstow. 'Oss 'Oss.
